The warm weather and lazy days in the lapa are in such contrast to our cool days and long nights here in Scotland! Yesterday I attended a workshop on confidentiality and listening with an LGBT organization and walked back to Waverly train station in the pitch dark at 6p.m. and I thanked my little fingers that had knitted a warm scarf the week before, and the leg warmers, as the nights are certainly getting cooler. We went to Waggamammas for supper last night and just missed the crowds as they streamed away from a function of lighting the Christmas lights at the local shopping center! We discovered a new South African wine from Cherry Hill...the sauvignon blanc, really lovely and light. It is Armistices day here and the whole week end has been taken up with military celebrations, Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth was at the Royal Albert Hall last night where dear old Cliff Richard sang as did some other great singers....the pomp and ceremony is so English, but the military music reminded me of many of the men in our family! Past most of them now...aaahh and life does move forward. I too am looking forward to a new phase in my life, becoming more entrenched in my community here in Scotland, completing my Masters degree this year and enjoying my life in the North! See you soon Sis! Love ja xx I can’t wait to visit you! The warm weather and lazy days in the lapa are in such contrast to our cool days and long nights here in Scotland!
