Glasgow area. I love Edinburgh though. Have you been to the World’s End pub on the Royal Mile yet? They do a great haggis and mash in there.
PS I’m kind of impressed that your wife needed a new axe :)
No. I’ll check it out next year. I climbed Arthur’s Seat last spring, though (huff and puff) and we saw the Queen’s yacht down at the harbor.
Glasgow is a rough town! She Who Must Be Obeyed took three one-week courses in trad music in 2007, (Ayreshire, the Trossachs, and Skye) and I flew into Glasgow for the Skye week. We took the train from Glasgow to Malaig.
Oh my God! What a glorious bit of the world! We actually passed the steam train on the way back from Skye used as The Hogwarts Express. It was so frickin’ cool…
