Up early and had intended to go for a walk but Anne wasn't feeling in top condition and was already heading to Tynecastle this afternoon (Hearts 2 Aberdeen 0) and a Xmas party this evening...

So we drove to Patisserie Florentin for breakfast...




...and then a scoot round the shops, purchasing a KD Lang disc at VoxBox and then on to Oxfam (nothing) and Shelter - where a 20CD box of Classical was acquired for just six of your English pounds...

Purporting to be the complete classical collection, it features one disc each by, in chronological order:-
Vivaldi; JS Bach; Handel; Haydn; Mozart; Beethoven; Schubert; Mendelssohn; Chopin; Liszt; Wagner; Verdi; J Strauss II; Brahms; Bizet; Tchaikovsky; Dvorak; Grieg ; Satie; Ravel...

Spent the afternoon ripping and listening...

Chum Michelle arrived around seven and I took her and Anne to the party out at Ingliston, in the company of fire jugglers...


...said Michelle...


...Vicky and Kerry...


...Mr Ferret...


...Teresa and Chris...


..and some acrobats...


Meanwhile, Meg took over in the hot seat...




...while I watched some TV ("Terminator") and, generally, wasted my time till I returned to the venue for 1am to provide lifts home...

Eventually to bed around 2:30...

Highlight of the Day : Classical bargain, kind of...
