I don't have any flights from EDI this weekend but I would have difficulty getting to the airport as the FRB has been closed to inspect some damage and could be closed for a few days. Traffic across into Fife and north towards will be very badly affected. It maybe better to consider using GLA or ABZ if you have a choice.

Happy friday, hangover finally gone and booked an ex-dub to gcm then a hop from gcm to halifax for a week. Bunch of a319s, 2x aa 77w, ex us a320, int a330 for a 400 mile flight (!) and a few e70 flights to boot, should be a fun trip!

Happy Friday all! After changing jobs and ending the frequent flying I'm back in the FLounge for the first time in 2 months, going home to GLA to see the mighty Glasgow Warriors play Leinster tomorrow then birthday tea in the new Brewdog in Glasgow's Merchant City. Can't wait...
(Except it's wild in Glasgow tonight so I'm expecting a diversion. And the rugby may get waterlogged. But that would mean more beer).

Late start this week !
Just back from this weeks travels and trying to get my things together for the weekend away for an "office" party for those of us that don't have an office !
Heading for a touch of Scottish seaside partying with some sea air to help the recovery tomorrow.
Safe travels everyone !

There is more than enough of it here in the UK which you're welcome to!
Happy Friday folks, a quiet one for me, chilling with a bottle of red wine and a movie tonight. I came across my box set of Laurel and Hardy which I haven't seen for years so I am going to watch a few episodes tomorrow.
Very funny slapstick stuff (especially the Piano going up the stairs episode) and better than half the modern rubbish we see nowadays, in my humble opinion.

Quiet weekend for us. Early kick off at the rugby in Glasgow tomorrow and probably a couple of quiet beers tomorrow night. One real positive is I have booked my flight for our re-scheduled match in Paris against Racing 92 after our call off following the now infamous night of carnage in the city in November. I'm looking forward to going back.
Have a great weekend folks.
