The weather was very grey and was not conducive to great photos (with my skill anyway). However, it was good to move my legs again after a couple of weeks of inactivity. The only exercise I've had recently has been lifting my right arm (which contained a glass of alcohol, for those of you with a dirty mind).
Which brings me to the interview in Scotland on Sunday with Calum Mackinnon. Calum has just opened a bar in Aberdeen called Amicus Apple. Calum thinks he has spotted a gap in the market for a branch of Amicus Apple and having read his thoughts I am confident I will never enter his bar.He describes his friends like this:
"All my friends work for big oil companies and drive white Range Rovers. They like to spend and being seen to spend".
This is how he describes Aberdeen:
"It's a beautiful place, you can do a bit of surfing, the Trump development is going to be so great for the city."
This was the final straw. I can just imagine his bar: businessmen with posh shirts and cars talking very loudly about their last bonus. Ladies with orange skin who don't know the meaning of "subtle" on the lookout for a rich partner. Bar prices you need a mortgage for. Bouncers on the door giving you a warm welcome.
Me - I'll be drinking in the Grill Bar where at least the punters are real and the beer is well kept.
End of rant ...
