Ooh, so we will be waving to you on the way past Beanielou!
Pah to being stuck in the house, can't be nice at all
It's mightily difficult even for the most stoical of us with well working legs, can't imagine what a pest it is for others 
I've got pancakes made for the picnic
And a couple of presents wrapped (couldn't do Mr Daffs', he was sitting there! :rotfl:) Just having a cuppa and a pancake, then popping off to get train tickets.
Somehow haven't managed to PACK yet either :rotfl:0 -
Get packing!!

Absolutely, get packing! The excitement is catching now, I'm practically hopping up and down myself - but thats a helluva price to pay for the train tickets, boo hiss. But hurray to pancakes, calming and otherwise

Between Edinburgh & Perth.
Good guess
My own region before I turned into a choochter up north. My OH is a Fifer and I'm from the 'tother side of a certain river
My pal down that way told me it not great there!
Cheery
Looked at the weather below freezing all week til thurs. When it gets upto 4
Oh and we've a severe weather warning again due to snow :rotfl:you got to laugh.
I guess the train will work out about the same as petrol/ferry?
If I get away it will cost me about £200 to get to central scotland.
Going through one supervisors red pen comments - only about 70 on a 7k word doc - thought I'd feel worse looking at it tomorrow
Only anohter 3 conflicting comments to recieve on this particular chapter!
Oh well, be done soon.
Hope you're packing alot of clothes - and a torch - I don't have one (dunno why I live in the middle of nowhere in the dark) I think maybe the torches are in the camping gear at the bottom of a cupboard full of packing boxes.
I'm excited too - I hope we make the concert at the cathederal - then we'll feel VERY xmassy
Of course the cello player will steal the day at the concert - she's very talented.Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:

B - you do have the very good beaches and a lack of mountains which folks make you climb up - which is also good.
I love Fife, so many beaches, so little time and of course brilliant ice-cream in that very lovely shop in st a - pity OH wants to move to the mountainous north - I'd happily live on a beach there, although I'm not posh enough I don't think.:rotfl:
Fife is the destination for me and my turkey during the festive period.Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:

Yep, pretty much the same either way - would have been about £200 diesel I think, plus £112 return on the ferry, and this way it's £232 on the train, £34 in a hostel, and only £60 return on the ferry - so not much in it!
Been and picked up train tickets from the station
(still not packed though :rotfl: Must find a torch - not sure I've got a sensible one :eek:) - ooh, might have headtorch somewhere! :T
Have got lots of warm clothes though - umming and ahhing about which coats to bring :rotfl:
Pah to silly supervisory comments - you'll get there, all be over soon xx0
