I still yearn for a pair of tartan trousers and from as far back as I can remember, when I used to plan what MY house would be like as a child, I always wanted a green tartan sofa. Still do.<br /><br />Love this page Sian - I'd come to your tea shop ;) Ooh and I need to read that Robbie Burns story!

I love TTO's comments about your prospective sandwich shop. I like those photos - we all made our first trip to Edinburgh last summer, on a day trip from Berwick-on-Tweed, where we were staying. We also thought it was a lovely city (though somewhat overcrowded, as it was The Festival & Fringe time!)... I think we'll go back. <br />The plaid is fun too. Is that one a Tartan, or is it just a plaid with no Family or Clan? Anyway, it's a nice one. <br />Great page, great stories; as always, great fun!
