The Big Top

Some stuff accomplished, and a visit to a contented but totally lost mother, before we stepped along to the posh neighbours, aka the RFYC. For twas the curtain raiser to the famous Edinburgh Gin Regatta. A bit disappointing that free gin wasn't on offer, but some good blethers were. And a new member joined us; young(ish - it's relative), attractive, fit, oh, and female. With no sailing experience as KA found when he tried to press her into crewing for him on the morn. Probably because it wasn't big enough - not his boat, his wallet. Oh, miaow. I can be such a bitch.
And then off up town for a nosh at the Basement with R&E before stepping through the rain to see Moishe's Bagel at the Spiegeltent. Beezer, so they were.
And it was almost a day with no political shenanigans. Well apart from the PM meeting the FM. And then the army attempted a coup in Turkey. Tbc, no doubt.
