Happy Birthday to me

Yep. It’s that time again. I’m another year older but not necessarily any wiser. I’m currently in Inverness, knocking back a pint of Tennents as I avail myself of the free WiFi at the local Smith & Jones pub.

I’m up here for the Highland Games which start tomorrow. And then a week up on the Shetland Islands. I can’t tell you how excited I am.

Later tonight I’m catching up with Simon Varwell, a long-time contributor to this blog. He’s promised to show me the Inverness hotspots tonight. I’m returning the favour by dragging him along to see The Proclaimers on Sunday night. (They’re ‘closing’ the games.)

After watching a couple of kids hotwire a red Golf in the carpark next to the train station I’m still not sure who’s got the best deal.

Anyway, a big thanks to everyone who has wished me a happy birthday – both by email and on my wall over at Facebook. It’s very much appreciated!
