I have just got back this morning from a week working in Edinburgh. I flew up (Easyjet) on Saturday. What a place? The people (that I met) were very nice and friendly the place is bursting with history and it has some of the most breath taking scenery I have ever seen. The night life is quite busy and full of tourists but still was very good. I am thinking of taking the Ol' lady up for a few days next month. I am nevertheless glad to be home again. The drive back took me 5 1/2 hours left Edinburgh at 04.00 got home by 09.30 with a short breakfast stop near Donnie. :nana2:

 

Just thought I would share my experiance with you. Incase you missed me???? :rofl:

I thought it had been quiet on here mate :rofl:

 

It is a nice place, Edinburgh.

 

How come if you flew up, you drove back though? How did you get the car there?

It's Scotland lads. Weathers Sh*t* but people keep it going :) The roads are fantastic you can travel from Blairgowrie to Glenshee as fast as your able :) as long as ya don't fall off

To cut a long story.........

 

The hire company my firm hires from "Lothian self drive" were going to deliver the van to bedford from scotland. So as I could drive to work in scotland. so I arranged to have the delivery driver meet me at Edinburgh airport with the van. Easy peasy. It was cheaper to fly up than the diesel in the van coming home?????

£40 to fly. £45 diesel to drive home.

 

AND I may add. much more fun.

 

Och Aye the noo. wonderful place well impressed.

Yeah gotta agree - Edinburgh is excellent. Used to live in Fife and regularly went there and like you say the people are great - although I've found that to be the case with the majority of Scottish folk that I've met.

As you can probably guess I havent spent much time in the north? :p

 

But I went to Aberdeen a few years ago for the day and was told by a few chaps of local origin (when they heard me speak) to "fock oof or die ye anglish scoom" so I did. I was on my way anyway? :hyper:

William Wallis has been dead a long time but those ol' jocks gotta loooooonnnnggggg memory? :rofl:
