Mmm, delicious

A busy day working and then an unplanned but very enjoyable evening out with some of DH's colleagues. How nice it was to see young Fraser again after all these years.

It was much earlier when I met this herring gull disporting himself amongst the rubbish bags of the West End. In select areas of Edinburgh like this (and of course, the New Town), the big wheelie bins with solid lids that us poor folks put our rubbish in are considered too unsightly; so the residents still put their rubbish out in black plastic sacks. The gulls do not miss a trick. They have harsh voices and reptilian eyes but I begrudgingly admire them.
