Chris came to visit for the weekend and we had a brilliant time with him. In a largely malt-flavoured weekend, we visited both venues of the malt whisky society (the vaults at Leith are fantastic), the whisky heritage museum and Royal Mile Whiskies. We also saw Ant's friend James play a fantastic solo acoustic gig and got a little tipsy in various pubs.
Today was the mad bit. Charlie and Mel took us to the skyride, an aerial assault course suspended 25 metres above the ground in a massive climbing centre. Hanging onto a swinging ropeladder that high up was terrifying, the most scared I've ever been. We were tied on and could have let go safely at any time (necessary at some points), but even so... we all made it round, some more gracefuly than others.
Great to see you Chris! Looking forward to seeing Phil and Jane next weekend!
