Hard at work

OK, so now I'm just gloating. Here I am sitting at the T-Head on
Peoples Street updating the Company website whilst enjoying the view
over the bay :-)
And also enjoying the palm trees around me - I like palm trees - they
don"t do well in Scotland!

Just another day Downtown

I thought it unfortunate when Parks trashed all our Downtown tree lights but now this guy has come all the way from Tennessee just to demolish an entire tree - and then there were 22.

Oh well it seems that my career as a weekend bus driver at the Jazz Festival has come to a premature end.
I hope it's just a belt that's broken!
