The Dogmother Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) OK, here are the photos, I will also post some in the 'Omlet TShirt Abroad' thread as I made sure that we got some of those too. We made it to the border; it was freezing! On the Edinburgh tour bus, left to right as far as I can see them: Chocchick and OH, Dan, Debs and family at the back, Shona in pink, Phil and I, Louise then Lesley (well half of her) and Carl front right Shona (chookiehen) in the cafe (she's gonna kill me for this!) At the Edinburgh Farmers market - great produce, but it was FREEZING! (Louise, Shona, Lesley, Me and Phil) Can you tell how cold it is? Carl was off buying some beer We had a fabulous time, despite getting sleeted on , ate far too much and enjoyed some great Scottish hospitality. Lesley and Carl will be back on Tuesday, with more photos no doubt More pix here http://s90.photobucket.com/albums/k272/Claret_63/Edinburgh%20trip/ Edited March 4, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Thanks Sarah, this is the new, less red, version! It was great to meet Shona as she was the only one of the party that I hadn't met before. It was a shame that you had to scoot off Chookiehen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Thanks for that Clare.....can I just point out that I don't normally go about with that 'I've just drunk a bottle of wine, and I can't quite open my eyes properly' look on my face. Oh.....wait a minute........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Great Photos! Good to hear Carl is still getting his priorities right! Thanks Clare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Shona, it's lovely to see you, but what I'm am really keen to know is whether you have a strong Scottish accent. Accents don't come across in the written word and for me, that would be the strangest thing - hearing you properly with a completely different voice from the one I 'hear' on the forum! Though, Louise's accent didn't seem at all strange to me when I met her. It's quite a gentle accent. Maybe I'm just talking rot here! But I would still be interested to hear your voice Shona! Are there any videos?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Shona has a lovely accent Ginette, stronger than Louise's but still intelligible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Lovely photos Its always great to put names to faces It could not have been that cold because Louise did not have any socks on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Looks like you all had a fantastic time - sorry I had to miss it - although coming from the Glasgow side (but not from Glasgow!) you probably wouldn't have understood me at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Lovely photos Its always great to put names to faces It could not have been that cold because Louise did not have any socks on She says she doesn't feel the cold My toes were cold though. Nice to see your avatar back Paola Sorry that we didn't see you Fee - another time perhaps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Shona has a lovely accent Ginette, stronger than Louise's but still intelligible Thank you Clare I'd love to hear you talking Shona. I like the Scottish accent. Fee, if you're accent is strong, you might end up saying everything at least twice! But it would still fascinate me to listen to you, even if I didn't know what you were saying! Would you have trouble understanding me?
