Hello all...how is everyone faring in this hot weather?

Having said that though, today it is overcast and very breezy, not the day for sitting under the parasol...
I am back from my 2 weeks holiday in Edinburgh. The weather was almost perfect for the whole of the fortnight. It was raining when I flew in and it rained the next day and then it was heatwave stuff except for one rainy day ...strangely enough that was a Wednesday too when it rained...I wonder why the weather chooses to rain on a Wednesday in Edinburgh...he he?
I did lots of touristy things whilst I was there although didn't go out with Linus as much as we both had expected to. As she and the family had just moved into their new house only a couple of weeks earlier, there were always workmen of various mentality to deal with and her hospital appointments to go to. We did however manage to go to the Botanic Gardens which were so lovely and peaceful even though there was a police helicopter hovering over Princes Street which is all of a 3 minute or so flight away.
One highlight for me was a boat trip to the Bass Rock, in the middle of the Forth, which is the largest Gannet breeding roost in the UK. We also sailed round to Craig Rock where I saw three seals basking in the sun on the rocks. I cannot wait to get the photos developed...
Unfortunately I didn't get to meet Tootoot...never mind...next time!!
