Where am I?

If I look outside my window I see rain. If I look around the office I see software developers in company t-shirts and gortex jackets hanging off their chairs. Am I home or Edinburgh?

Readers: I will be off line until next week so don't worry that I have been kidnapped by Scottish bandidos. The best way to reach us in case of emergency is Andy's crackberry until otherwise noted.

Plans for the next few days include, checking out the Edinburgh festival, visiting a co-worker in Linthgow and for tomorrow, a trip to Sterling castle via train. I promise to post more reviews and photos next week.

In other news,
- I'm developing an unhealthy addiction to Scottish shortbread, tea with milk and sugar, and Google maps.
-Yesterday Karsten said, "buggy" instead of stroller. It's always the kids who are best able to transition into new surroundings. Now if only I could get Britta to say "nappie" instead of "poo poo."
- The kids are finally sleeping all night. Yay.
- UK CVs (resumes) indicate if the person can drive a manual transmition car.
- Quincy's coming to visit!
- Recent discovery. It is okay to say "bathroom" instead of "loo" when speaking with an American accent. Seems like cheating.

...have a great time on the road. And if you can manage it, bring back some shortbread with that argyle! And when are you visiting Nessy?
