Auld Reekie visitor

 Another year almost over, goodbye 2025. 

Not been too eventful for me to be honest so a short update this time. I made my 200k steps target yesterday so was not incredibly active, but not a couch potato either.

Went to Auld Reekie a couple of times this month, the last time a couple of days ago, had meant to visit Xmas market, but the general pubs of Edinburgh were mostly visited. It's an expensive city, but no December is complete without a pub crawl or two there! Have plan to visit there again maybe on this coming Saturday, the Johnnie Walker experience might be visited, or plans will change and will end up on a train back home pie-eyed with a kebab in the hand. 

Took the train along to Leven today, there is a great pub with nice steak pies, cheap too, the train line to Leven is a great thing, but I mentioned that before. Talking of trains a trip to Oban for end of January has been booked, £19 return again, hotel for two nights under £100, not bad at all.

My father's estate is still not settled, this should be sorted in January though, an absolute disgrace it has dragged on, the lawyers are bandits and well see if we take action against them. Does an estate really need to take all this time? The Queen's took much less and we're not talking about a multi-million fortune here!

Not going out to pub later, working tomorrow, early start, so maybe a couple more drinks before hitting my bed and lights out around 8pm hopefully. I worked over Christmas too, it's ok, hopefully not too icy tomorrow like it was this morning. 

Here a couple of photos taken this month, wore the jumper and Santa hat to the pub on Xmas day after coming back from work...mirror has been cleaned since.

See you next year!
