The Cafe

A visitor or two! For who had pencilled in a visit to Edinburgh, to sample the worst weather of the year - none other than blip’s Cheeryoscuro with his delightful partner, Zilla. I gather the fellow was given a guided tour of uptown before arriving down at the seaside cottage where he was treated to soup and some of his own Clonakilty cheese and Whisky. And Misterft turned up with weans to enliven the scene. A brisk follicle challenging walk along the front and then off to the Cafe Royale to huddle from the hoolie blowing outside and meet up with Rex and Imindoors and have a decent sup and chinwag. We even got round to talking about the EU and the Eurozone! But not Dana. Good to meet you both. 
All too brief - we had to leave; briefly home then out to the yacht club quiz. At the half way point we (‘The Hopelessly Lost’) were narrowly ahead of the pack which included several other Corinthian teams as well as a team from Cramond BC and .. the Royal Forth (booo!). It was a game of two halves.. the bliddy RFYC ran out winners by a clear 5 points with us in second. If it hadn’t been for Lorna mind, I reckon we’d have been last. And the prize given to the RFYC - apart from drink (there’s always drink) nice little beanie hats with the FCYC logo. Avast there!
