Wrapping Up

Dinner at Deacon Brodie’s Tavern was our last meal in Edinburgh. We went upstairs to order dinner, past the festive pub goers on the ground floor. It was pretty crowded, so we had to wait a bit to be seated. While waiting I went into the ladies loo (restroom) and got into a conversation with […]
