Filippa Eilhart Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Fili, there’ll be lots of blokes in kilts for you to harass How on earth did I earn this reputation?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaldanya Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 She will probably at least wait until my body is cold. Run now. Oh bollocks! When I remember in my hungover state on Sunday morning, Mr Chal thought it was hilarious. I was curled up into a ball saying "I'm a hussy. I flashed my fat white stomach all over the place. I should have a red letter painted on me and be shunned by society!" PS. The look of distaste on your face when you tried to introduce me by my real name, classic Dude, do you know when I knew that your real name wasn't Barry - about a month ago, you gotta give me a little time here N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakalwe7 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Barry's REAL real name is actually Jemima. Ronan is just a red herring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zollo Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I have to admit, I had to think twice as well when I introduced 'little b' to my colleagues, back in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zakalwe7 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Saturday Day 1 Who is arriving on Saturday and what times? 2 What do people want to do in the afternoon? A – Visit the Castle B – Visit the Museum of Scotland C – Visit/ view the Palace and the Parliament D – Climb the crags and Arthur’s Seat I take it as read that we will head up to the Royal Mile and visit some pubs. We can also split into 2 groups – some of us can sit in the pub or a café We could do all of these things or none Answers on a postcard to the BWB Burns Night thread, BWB Forum, ASOIAF Board, The Internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filippa Eilhart Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 castles are boring. And expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vestrit Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 If people want to do different things, I’m more than happy to split the tour guide duties with Zak. Of course, if you come with me, that means you’ll have to get used to two things: 1: you’ll be getting told about Scottish things in a Na Zillun accent 2: a lot of my answers to questions may be ‘Um, not sure…’ Fili, if you don’t want to spend cash on the castle, the Parliament’s free and very interesting (and about the only building in Edinburgh that I actually know much about). Of course, given your new job, you may not want to spend any of your time off looking around government buildings… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needle Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 C – Visit/ view the Palace and the Parliament D – Climb the crags and Arthur’s Seat these two are fairly easily combined, no? I'd love to go see the new parliament, anyway. (and I can prolly do a bit of a tour guide thingy bout it if needs be; certainly know enough about the place *waves resident edinburgh architect flag*) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zakalwe7 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I’m sort-of imagining Am – lateish start – champagne breakfast for ms zak at mine Late am – head up to princes street then walk up to castle Lunch – Head to pub in royal mile or grassmarket Early pm – Walk down royal mile – stop at 1 or 2 good pubs – see parliament and palace Mid pm – split – 1) Walk up crags and arthur’s seat 2) Go back to pub (greyfriars?) Late pm – meet back in pub – folk can go off and get ready for evening Early evening – Drinks at mine – then head off to the assembly rooms But quite willing to take in other’s peoples wants and needs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Sneachd Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Sounds like a great plan Last time I visited the Castle it took me about a whole day to see all I wanted to see, and with the rightful complaint that it is expensive, maybe taking a look from the outside is a good idea? Otherwise I'm fine with everything, and I even volunteer to carry Charldanya as I really want to see Arthur's seat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaldanya Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Thanks for the offer hon, but you really don't want to do that - i'd break ya! TBH I'm not much fashed about what we do during the day. It'll be good to hang out with you all - it doesn't matter where we are when we do that. N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BranTheBuilder Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Hmmm, haven'yt decided when I'm going to turn up. Can't see that I'll be up before9.30 at the earliest (working night before), so I should imagine that I'll be in the big smoke sometime around middayish....

tenalpia Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Probably be arriving early afternoon on Saturday - so will be looking for the sensible souls waiting in the pub for the lunatics climbing up a big f**k off hill in January It there's anyone who will definitely be in a pub early to mid afternoon - can I give you my mobile number to text me what pubs you're in...? Any volunteers - just pm me... I've got Mormont's number but I've a feeling that he'll be a lunatic hill hugger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filippa Eilhart Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 hmm... it's prolly to early to be asking this, but once I get to Glasgow, should I be calling someone to find out where people are, or will you guys be at casa daj, or what? and do I need an address or a phone number for that, or something?
