Edinburgh gathering - 2009

[Mael Coluim]

Okay, Guys and gals the time is pressing and we need to make some decisions for us to meet up.

Here are my suggestions:
Friday, 7/24 @ 7 PM a Phil favorite!
The Bow Bar
80, West Bow,Victoria St
EH1 2HH 0131 226 7667
A successfully revamped old style Edinburgh pub renowned for great variety of real ale and guest beers and a good selection of malts. Friendly local pub with no frills or themes. Sometimes frequented by City councillors and the occasional community education worker but still a great place. Only a 10 pace stagger from a brilliant cheese shop and a historically significant brush shop.

Saturday, 7/25 @ 7 PM [TO BE CHANGED CONFLICTS WITH PAGENT]
Brecks
110-114, Rose St
EH2 3JF 0131 225 3297
Nice central island bar with imaginative bar meals and snacks. Pictures of RL Stevenson (Alan Breck, Kidnapped) and a cosy room off. Lively at weekends but still a good place for a chat. Some cask ale, range of whiskies and wines. Was the Goblet which was one of the 'in' places of the 60's/70's set. Its two bars were knocked into one.

Sunday, 7/26 Holyrood Park at the Main Stage@ 4:30 PM
