Time and Tide Wait for no Man

This poster of tides at Portobello is an early Christmas present from Porty daughter who is flying at the end of the week to Cyprus to meet her daughter. My granddaughter lives in Sharjah but will travel to Paphos for a week’s holiday with her Mum whom she hasn’t seen for 2 years.

It feels so much milder today but with the mildness comes drizzle making a gloomy damp day. It doesn’t seem to have deterred the crowds stravaiging through Edinburgh en route for the Christmas Market, the Castle or even the Museum.

With the tsunami of Covid infections predicted for Scotland very much in mind, I got a pack of 7 lateral flow test kits to use in case I have to visit anyone or be visited by anyone who has been anywhere crowded. It’s terrible that after 2 years
we should almost be back at square one.
