Gales in Edinburgh

'kin 'ell!

This flat is shaking all over the bloody shop

(I realise I am possibly displaying my Scottish "noob"ness here and this is a regular occurrence )

'tis a bit breezy right enough. There again, it's only to be expected, it being nearly winter and all.

Bit windy down this way too - Glad I'm staying in, don't fancy being out in it.

Happy New year when it comes.

Have a good'n folks... only 50 mph hail up here so we're off to the party.

Not surprised.

George Sq in Glasgow's been cancelled too.

My cousin called me after the "bells" last night from Edinburgh, he said the gales had died down and the "do" went ahead, fireworks and all..

Is that not right?

[graham@edinburgh]

Sort of. The concert and "official" stuff was canned but a fair amount of people were already in the vicinity, so when the weather calmed a bit, things carried on. I did see a load of fireworks in the vague direction of the castle but not nearly as much as usual
