Auld Reekie
Spent the morning hauling blackie hoggs to the top hill. Managed 130 by lunch time,then went with Mrs Farmerboab to drop Little Miss off at a party in town. Haven't driven in the centre of Edinburgh for a while. And it shows ! Thought all I had to do was nip along George Street. No chance,seemingly it is now closed to traffic where I wanted to be. And there are these funny bus things that run on rails in the middle of the road !
When I eventually did get parked,got chatting to a bloke who was parked beside me. He had me pegged as a farmer straight away. (Maybe it was my Sunday wellies that gave the game away ! )
Treated Junior to a dose of culture with a trip round the National Gallery, much to his well voiced disgust ! This painting of the Castle from the 1800's caught my eye.
Was glad to get home tonight and escape back to the cattle. These family days are hard work !
