For someone who is all about words, and loves to natter away at every chance, I’m pretty much lost right now.
And so after perusing the touching messages on your Facebook page, I decided on this.
“You didn’t start boxing for no reason. Fight on!”
When we came to Edinburgh last year we had an amazing time – we found a popular little seafood restaurant called the Mussel Inn. This time round we decided to go back again – and it was still just as amazing!
A starter of creamy seafood chowder, followed by a kilo pot of mussels cooked in white wine, cream, garlic and shallots and finished off with a strange concoction of ice cream, coffee and Baileys in a glass. A bottle of naturally sparkling white wine was the perfect addition to this amazing meal.
If I could go there every day then I would. No seriously, I would.
Also on an additional note we met a friendly American man there this time last year and he just so happened to be there again this time; who knows, if we go back a year from now, he could very well be there again!
On our final full day in Edinburgh we decided to finally do something touristy; and so we went to the National Museum of Scotland.
Inside we marvelled at the work of an obviously badly skilled taxidermist, found out I weigh as much as a Komodo Dragon, the boy weighs as much as a Harbour Porpoise, discovered that I would look quite fetching in poofy renaissance style outfits and lost the Boy near Jackie Stewart’s Formula One car.
