New Years Scotland
New Years Eve in
Well outside of course, have a huge street party, concerts and street theatre. Unfortunately the weather did not settle during the day, it gradually got worse. The wailing wind progressed to a gale, and rain turned to sleet.
Pete and I had tickets to the street party and Pet Shop Boys concert, so we gortex up and trundled off up the street, thinking the Scottish might be crazy enough to hold such an event.
Along the way trees were blown over, roof tiles were on the pavement.
mmmm….The skepticism stepped in.
We were turned away and like many others ventured up to the castle since the lights were on. However there was a man armed with a machine gun collecting invitations, and since we obviously didn’t have one, headed home. The fireworks went off at 12, not in the vertical direction more horizontal.
