Bits and Bobs

Good Afternoon My Dears,

This promises to be a rather short post as, miracle of miracles, the sun is shining in Edinburgh today.  Consequently, I am going to explore Leith, which is Edinburgh's harbor.  However, when last I posted, I promised to talk about a few interesting happenings.  First, I went to a birthday party for Koby, my friend Laura's precocious 3 year old son.  It was not surprisingly, freezing.  This made the party a bit of a downer especially as it was a barbecue.  I am still breaking out the winter coat and not roasting hot when I wear it.  The party however was fun and turned into an engagement party as one of Laura's other friends from the US who was over for a visit, got engaged at Edinburgh Castle.  It was quite sweet and there were quite a few tears of joy.

The second round interview at Black Rock went well, but they seem to be taking their time about whether to make an offer or not.  However, I also have an interview on Thursday and this is for a permanent role so maybe if the temp one doesn't come through the perm one will.  And on it goes.  Jobs keep coming up and I get interviews but no offers as yet.

I did go to a dance lesson last week and had a very nice time.  I was a bit saddened  to find that Scottish men have very little rhythm, much like their American cousins.  However, I did dance with the teacher and that is always good as you can alway pick up a thing or twelve from them.  I am planning on going to a social dance on Wednesday to check out the Edinburgh swing dance scene.

Right, that's all she wrote folks.

Cheerio for now,

Tina
