Auw

Well, it wasn't that bad.. At least it wasn't snowing or anything..

True...although you must have been damn lucky

Yeah, the chances of it snowing in Edinburgh on the 5th of August is a real concern.

Well it is Scotland.

No it isn't! Anyways, the thing I was more worried about was if it started to rain. Fortunately, it didn't.

what do you mean no it isn't, we're in scotland, this is scotland

*looks outside to check*

nope we're not on Mars.

I meant that there wasn't any risk of getting snow in August. I know this is Scotland, and I will not deny that.

I wouldn't be surprised at any weather at any time in Scotland

Well, that's true.. I should know that, but I still think that a blizzard in Edinburgh in early August would be highly unlikely.

But could still be possible.

I have a photo at home somewhere that shows out garden with a light coating of snow...

In June

Dammit.. Okay, then.. I guess I was lucky it didn't snow on me in Edinburgh on the 5th of August, when the day had been a beautiful 20 degrees centigrade.

Yep

At least, this next meetup, I won't have too far to travel before I get home to my own bed.

Well I doubt I'll get down for the meet, means about a 3 hour round trip to get there and back so I'd most likely be late and then have to leave early.

Never mind, maybe next year

Hey, you could always crash at someone's place? I know Munchkin usually has people (well, me, mostly) taking up a bit of his floor space for the meets...

Nah next year it'll be easy cause a mate's getting a flat down there, so I'll be able to crash out and bolt to the station the next day.

Gawd, I'll have to start arranging my accommodation - phone my friend in Partick, man what a chore
