Thanks guys. I had a great day finishing with a meal in what used to be my parents' house in Callander.

Glad you had a grand day, Anthony. Parents' house in Callander? You're getting to be more of a Scot every year. Congratulations!

I had always assumed that Anthony was a Scot-am I wrong, not that it matters either way!

This is what it looked like when we lived there (taken 1973 - 10 years after we moved to Scotland).

8th February today and the birthday of three Forumists:
David Nicholson, old enough to know better,     Rafa, old enough not to care,  and Dan ( of EllenDan) who is old enough to have lots of fun finding out!!
Many Happy Returns of the Day to you all, hope your birthday is good for you!

John, you are such a blabbermouth! I was going to tell Lesley that the tubby goddess of the forum,  she sees all, knows all! Not that anyone was going to buy that, but I never give up hope!

Anthony, if you are there, serving tea or helping out on the plant stall.... i.e. working, then who knows what reward there might be? For those just schmoozing, well, that's a different matter!
