On Inappropriate Footwear.

I was taking the Captain to Space Academy this morning.  Walking up Middle Meadow Walk I saw a chap wearing casual business dress and flip flops.

In Edinburgh, in March.

The sound of his flipflops shluping along the street was quite evocative, but not, for me, in a good way.

...but at my back I hear time's loose flip-flops...

Are you around next Tuesday? I'm in Edinburgh, and I've provisionally arranged to meet up with Andrew Ducker.

Not sure where/when.

My phone number is 07880 615190

I'm not, I'm afraid.

It's the Captain's birthday so I'm at home eating cake.

Cake wins over whisky? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you!

We'll raise a dram to the Captain.

Have fun, and love to you all!

I shall be having a small whisky along with my cake.

Thanks.

MLW is out and I'm at home tonight and Thursday if you're still in Edinburgh.

I am in Edinburgh, but I'm afraid I'm busy both noights!

Sorry!

Acch - when are you next up?

I am most likely moving back at some point. I have been up looking at flats.

So probably April or May...
