Edinburgh
We have arrived ! The plane landed in what was expected in weather that was cold, wet and a bit windy. A traditional Scottish summers day  We gathered all our luggage, all but 1 piece did not arrive. Stuart Third, Pipe corporal, had the misfortune of having one of his bags not arrive. Fortunately, it was his casual clothing and not his kit.

We were met by our bus driver and liaison group, for the life of me now I cannot remember their names. One of them is however a young South African lad spending some of him time here in Scotland. After all the bags were loaded on trolleys, we headed through the Scottish elements to the bus.. nothing like a bit of rain to cheer you up after 2 days of travelling ... well ok maybe not. On the bus, the Pipe Major CC and Drum Major were whipped away to a briefing which turned out to be not so brief. The rest of the group on the other hand all arrived at Darroch Court, which will be our home for the next few weeks.
