Laid back day...

Had a good night out last night with the youngest inhabitants (under 40!) of A's Gran's block. We actually went to a real honest to goodness pub, where alcohol was consumed. So this morning was a slow start, and brunch rather than breakfast. Went almost straight from brunch to coffee, and now back in another (wifi enabled) coffee shop before heading off to get changed and have dinner in very nice place down by the harbour.

We'll have to be up and about early tomorrow, since our train leaves at 8.30. I'm not overjoyed at flying from Amsterdam tomorrow, all things considered. Should I really wear my kilt to make the body searches more interesting?

I think we're arriving back in the UK around 4, for a happy reunion with dog and cat. Then we can start planning New Year at the cottage.

It's a well known fact that the sole purpose of the kilt is to conceal large quantities of explosive packed around the testicles. The latest TSA directive appears to call for cavity searches for all kilt wearers.

That would be Phil McCavity, the adventurous dentist...

No relation to Gerald Fitzpatrick or Patrick Fitzgerald I suppose?

Actually I'm slightly surprised they haven't banned kilt wearing on flights (if only during the last hour). A kilt would seem to facilitate goolybombing.

KILT! Absolutely.
