Robert Burns' birthday

So pleased you had a lovely day, Marelli with that fine bunch of women! . Good for Elegran

Just back from Elegran's after having had a really lovely afternoon with lots of chat and laughter and food! Elegran had made us all so welcome and worked so hard to make Burns Day special for us. Thank you Elegran, and everyone else who joined us - Glass, Gillybob, Bags, Marsco (Lurkio), baubles, Granny23, Elizabeth1. What a fine bunch of women. .

Just seen the weather forecast....LOTS of snow for Edinburgh?

I have visions of everyone having to budge up and bunk down there for the night!

Happy Burns night to all you Scots! Hope you`ve had a great afternoon at Elegran`s.

You will Gally

Hope you've all had a lovely afternoon. Thought about you all tucking in while we were on the Eurostar whizzing through France. Just arrived in Paris and settled into our lovely rooms. It's bitterly cold but, hey, we're going to have great time

HAPPY, happy, happy Burns day to one and all. Bags sent a text as she was travelling on the train. My consellation prize [for being unable to join the high-jinx] was to watch a cliff-hanger of a four hour match between Andy and Roger. When "our man" won...out came the dram. Oooh, it was lovely.
PS...much rain but no snow...

Happy Burns day!

Enjoy your Burns celebration grans wish I could be with you, but looking at the snow - er - maybe not! Take care and keep warm with a few wee drams

Snowing here again. Hope everyone has made it to Edinburgh safely. Thinking of you

Happy Burns Nicht, to all Scots grans whether at home or in exile.

Good detective work Marelli.

Just read the earlier posts. Have a good meeting. Happy Burns' Night to everyone, it's been a good year for the haggis with all this rain.
What else would an Orcadian marine biologist call themselves Bags?

Safe journey down the track, Bags - and the rest of the way! See you at Elegran's!
Orca - I think you must be louping across from island to island on Orkney? Have a fine time!

Have a lovely lunch everyone nd safe journey there and back.

Enjoy yourself, orca! (love your name ). Tiny bit of wet snow here. Bags getting nervous about driving down hill. [Stop worrying. You'll be fine. Stop worrying. You'll be fine. This is why you have a 4x4, and why DH has got the bus this morning!]

I have been invited to a Burns Night Supper by some ferry-louper friends. It will be interesting to see what's on offer.

Mr soop and I will be raising a goodly wee dram to you all. Deep longingful sigh.

Sorry phoenix I had missed your post, very good

So it is, soop! My great size 7 twinkle toes should make it in no time!

phoenix- like that a lot!

Our train is already booked so we will try and see what happens in the morning, if you all feel its feasible to carry on with the arrangements as they stand.

Twinkle Toes...Fife is as good as "next door"...a mere hop, skip and jump away. I'd walk from there, if I could.

I've just seen it as well, Granny23. I think we'll give it a go from Fife, but what about you?

Not wishing to ring alarm bells but have just seen the weather forecast for the Edinburgh area for tomorrow. Any thoughts?
