I see. Would you mind leaving your brain to medical science, Carol? They've never seen one so unused in such an old person before!

A Prince Charming I will never be ... not my bag (as they might have said in the 70s). I'd much rather be who I am ... Sir Edmund Blackadder XIV, Lord of .... well that's just it, isn't it? I'm not telling. You'll just have to consult Debrett's! Very Happy

Edinburgh ..... mine ain romantic toun ... as Scott so succintly put it! The finest capital city on the planet. I LOVE my Edinburgh ... and Arthur Seat is a great playground for children and adult alike! You've never lived till you've slid down the slopes on cardboard, at the Crags!

sounds fun, don't think I'd have the stamina to walk up Arthur's Seat!

I was a 'traveller' for most of my early years, can't determine anywhere being my ain toun, nearest would be Dollar (The Wee County) where my maternal grandparents eventually settled.

Got roots in Kilmacolm (not sure where) and Italian blood flowing through my veins Rolling Eyes

Dollar!!! Wonderful place. I always take people I know to Dollar Glen. I thoroughly recommend a walk through it to everyone.

carol · Posted: Wed Mar 19, 2008 1:33 pm Post subject:

yes an affluent area, 'cept we came from 'Lower Mains' at the time (council houses). I pass through Dollar often enough, just not time to stop off Confused

Well, of course I knew you were a peasant! There was no need to confirm it!

St Monans is erm .......... quiet Rolling Eyes

still was nice for a wee break at the time.

although I prefer sandy beaches, to rocky coasts.

loved the beach at Carradale Wink

my ex snapped me in an itsy bitsy bikini, note when I was not at my slimmest Confused

men have a strange sense of humour!!

The only Bikini you should ever have been in was an atoll ... in 1946 ... in the open!
