Menu and photos of our scran last night. We both loved it all😋

Off out for a 10 course tasting menu A few drinks beforehand. A pretty decent view for people watching before we go A typical #Edinburgh grey January day

We're about to book a holiday in Sicily We went for Ortigia for a week in September. Got a deal on an apartment in the old Jewish Quarter. It has a great terrace as well. So well happy #Sicily #Italy

RIP wonderful DJ Bert Bevans. In the comments here: "the bump in My Piece of Heaven is because some guy came into the booth and was hugging me while I mixed"

Got the sad news of the passing of Bert Bevans. Out with all he achieved as a DJ he was a great guy Had the pleasure of spending some time with him when he DJd for us at The Get Down. He got properly involved. Chilling with our crew. Chatting, getting photos taken etc Funny as well. RiP Bert

Wolf Moon rising into the twilight sky over Edinburgh last night embedded in “Belt of Venus” pink & blue as the sun sets on the opposite horizon - blue shadow of Earth w the sun still lighting the pink portion, the blue slowly rises and subsumes the pink. #WolfMoon

Back in the game after a monumental Hogmanay. Happy New Year to all.

Having some mates round for espresso martinis and some snacks Wee boxing day daytime sesh We're open from 2 - 7 and timings are strict. Helen's rules, I just go with the flow. Helen's made her sausage rolls 😋 I appreciate no photos isn't great but I'll post some later Enjoy your boxing day 🙌🏻

Merry Xmas all Have a wonderful day of indulgence Up at this ungodly hour to make Cullen Skink. My role is 99.9% support only

Another Xmas track that's linked to the CC track For what obvious reason? youtu.be/sRVHM1-fOK8?...

Xmas record A classic in the genre of Santa cheating songs #Xmas youtu.be/s0NoalRsk5w?...

Helen is off but busmans holiday. She's making Cullen Skink and bacon jam for the home made sausage rolls 😋 We're having friends over for boxing day cocktails First time ever in her working life that she's had Xmas through to New Years off I have a hectic festive social diary planned for me

Caledonian Hotel afternoon tea. Delicious and a great afternoon with the family. I'd say The Balmoral is better though I'm sitting on the sofa and Helen is away to the gym 😳

Off to the Caledonian Hotel for family afternoon tea #Edinburgh #Tea #AfternoonTea

And now the cat has just puked 😬

Not been on here much recently. Back as I'm in my scratcher feeling like 💩 with the lurgy 🤧 I'm a rubbish patient. I'm trying to eat my way out of it, unsuccessfully but it hasn't stopped me trying

Worth remembering that this is a second string bowling attack that England are facing #Ashes #Cricket 🏏

Game over 🏏 #Ashes #Cricket

Same again Gifting wickets in an already difficult position. Pathetic really. You can't keep playing through the line on this pitch. #England #Cricket #Ashes 🏏

Pathetic shot Warning after warning but either arrogance or stupidity and he's gone. #Ashes #Cricket 🏏

England's sneaky plan to tire out Starc by letting him bat for ages seems to have worked 🏏 #Ashes #Cricket

What a weekend . Zamie were outstanding on Friday at the Drygate in #Glasgow Last night we were at a 1970s themed party My wife is so so beautiful 😍

Off to #Glasgow today to see the super talented Zamie tonight. Really looking forward to hearing them live with a 10 piece band and DJs. #JazzFunk #SupportLocalMusic

Travis Head apologises to Day 3 ticket-holders after he sealed an Australia win inside two days 😅

The Ashes 🏏 So I stay up until 4:30 AM, lunch. Wake up and it's all fucking over 😅 What a disaster for Bazball England need to sort a plan B & C #Ashes2025

For everyone following the cricket this morning you might appreciate this website that my 14 year old niece made: www.upfortheashes.com

17 wickets in a day and counting 😳 If this was the sub continent there would be howls of derision about the pitch #Ashes #Cricket 🏏 #India #SriLanka #Pakistan

Travis Head Ironic name because they'll be aiming for that part exactly Notorious for not liking the short ball 🏏

I've managed to sync up TMS with the TV coverage 🏏

Ex Captain 😉 🏏

Shouldn't there be a short leg for Smith against Archer 🏏

Huge session Talking about series defining seems a bit mad on day 1 but it has that feel about it #Ashes #Ashes2025 🏏

Players and umpires congregated near the pitch while the stands emptied quickly after the 5.5 magnitude earthquake hit parts of Bangladesh and India Read more: bit.ly/3XID2k8

Who's the male commentator on TNT 😬 Not sure I'm keen

Always wait until both teams have batted before you judge a total. Interesting looking pitch though. A 3 day test match incoming? #Cricket #Ashes 🏏

The infinite possibilities of humans summed up in one photo. All the things going on within Scott McTominay in that moment to ensure that happens so purely captured in a single static image. Look at his eyes on the ball, complete focus his brain making the most complex calculations. What a photo

Fucking unreal Jeez we're pish but 4 amazing goals with Shanklands the pick obviously

A couple of nice ceilings Follow me for more devastatingly interesting posts like this

I know I shouldn't swear, it is not professorial or polite, but fucking hell this administration is beyond evil. Paul Bojerski spent 7 decades here in the US, worked as an optician, and now, at the age of 79, he has been kidnapped & placed in a US concentration camp where his health is at risk.

So there was a piece about a message in a hidden bottle in a large plaster crown at the Kings Theatre #Edinburgh Anyway I helped gold leaf that crown 40 years ago and commented The heritage officer would like to record a conversation with me about my contribution @darrenmcleanuk.bsky.social

A) ben e king b) Norman Harris credit c) sigma sound d) the sleeve - could not be left in bargain bin

Cheers Hope it's been a good weekend for you Been remarkably quiet for us. That's no bad thing. 🍸 #EspressoMartini #Espresso #Cheers

The drunk will play for a draw #Scotland #Denmark

Play 6 up front and boot it up the park Oh wait

Still no Shanks He'll get 5 minutes

Fucking shoot you shite bag
