    Very nice once again Trefor. Our hotel in Edinburgh (from June) - The Parliament House is just out to the right in your first photo.

    Thanks again Trefor. It''s nice seeing these sites again. I had been trying to place the Tron church and you just did it for me. Royal Mile and North Bridge. You took that pic from the very spot we first spotted the processional from the castle taking the Crown of Scotland to Holyrood for the opening of Parliament this summer.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks Dee and I'm glad I was able to assist with your geographical orientation of Edinburgh landmarks!

    Excellent pics, Trefor. Now you've got me curious. Who made love in that house in the Royal Mile?

    Well, considering that it's John Knox's house probably no one.

    Despite his tirades against "the monstrous regiment of women" apparently it didn't apply in certain areas!

    But I would rather not talk about him - its a subject I can get very passionate about!
