Scotland The World Over in Edinburgh

I took part in Scotland The World Over!

The Great annunal Family Christmas shopping expedition was as usual a great success. The coffee to start the day as we met up, saw us get our Themes for this year.
The girls had to wear hair extensions which added a certain sparkle. The boys for obvious reasons could not. well most of them didn't have enough to hold them and Curlyfries didn't need one. We were also given whistles. The rules were extensive, but points given and taken for appropriate and inappropriate use.. The use of the word n.i.c.e. was as usual penalised and the throwing into the conversation, "The day after tomorrow", gained more points.

As usual, the points didn't matter, it was the fun of the game that was important. Besides, AIME would have won it as usual, so we didn't count, but I do have to apologise to the German market and funfair goers for the over use of the whistles around the big wheel. Well perhaps I don't.

Wee Euan had a horrible cold, but still managed to enjoy most of the day and Ollie was a star too. The parents weren't bad too.

Next year hopefully more of the family can gather and have fun with the growing band of mad shoppers.
