Poor Dorian has been cursed with a late December birthday for several years now. Since birth actually. This year we got to spend it with him and enjoy feeding him and meeting several of his friends here in Glasgow. On Sunday last we went with him to his first church and spoke with many people who think very highly of Dorian and some have invited us to their homes for meals and conversation. A fellow who has begun something of a radio career after retiring from teaching invited us to lunch and we had a fine time with him and his wife.
Boxing Day on Buchanan St here is something to behold. The street is wall to wall people. It was even fun to be there, and for me to say that is weird I know. We had the fun of a classic Christmas Panto, Aladdin, with Dorian on Monday evening. It was great. We cheered "Widow Twanky", booed the evil magician and laughed at
Wishy Washy. It was a million pound production and looked it. As Dorian has to go back to work, we have spent the days getting the details of our trip to the Canaries finalized. Some of you may not know, we had booked a flight with an airline called Globespan. We do seem to have the ability to b
ring airlines to grief. For the second time this year, the airline that we had chosen bit the dust. Visa is going to hate us. They have assured us that we are covered and will be reimbursed 100%. So now we have set our sights on Thomson Airlines. We hope that they can stay in business for the next 8 days.We have roamed around the city centre and frittered our money away on lunches. Till next time, bye bye.
You were much missed last night as we rang in the New Year. We actually rang in 9:28, but our intentions were good. Happy to you, Dorian. Nice to hear that the folks continue to feed you. We too are rooting for Thompson Air!
