I collected Andrew and his Mum from Glasgow Airport following their wee trip to canada...... they looked tired but both agreed they had had a lovely time.
After dropping Mum off for a long sleep and all of Andrews bits and bobs back at his flat we headed over to Edinburgh.
Andrew had brought back lovely Candadian tops for myself, Mike, Pete, and Andy. A beautiful hand painted silk scarf which i just adore .... and loads of wee nick nacks, thanks Sweetheart. We spent a lovely romantic saturday night together.
Downtown on Sunday was crowded with rugby fans .... a fab carnival atmosphere with both Kiwis and Scots enjoying the day ..... the game was as expected considering Scotland only fielded a second team,but hey the day was worth the expensive tickets, thanks again to Andrew ...he is so good to me !
My only complaint and I'm sure one felt by the majority of the 65,000 there: Edinburgh could do with a wee think about the way beer is sold at future games .... it was frustrating at the least, but embarrassing as a home fan to be part of such a chaotic system if there in fact was one.
Andrew and I soaked up the atmosphere following the game, along with a few beers and then had a very yummy and much needed Thai meal in Gorgie Road. Sleep came easily for us both ...... Andrew had a good reason as he had been travelling and jet lag etc .... me I was just drunk ....... and happy.
Back in the real world.
June had managed to hold off having her baby while I was enjoying the rugby which is very appreciated. So we are still waiting .......
Andy (that's son 4) was out at midnight to get a copy of Halos 3 ..... he and a pal spent all night playing.
I am trying to sort out a contract blunder (on my part it seems) with Virgin Active... don't ask .....
Roll on another full rugby weekend .... and June's baby :-)
