Morning guys and gals 👍😃
Today we are going to the camera obscura and illusions. Jr ral loves it and it's such great fun . Then to the real Mary kings close which is an old city street under the city.
Then to the castle. grandma ral never been to the castle. Tbh I find it a bit underwhelming. It recently won the award for worst value for money attraction in the UK 😱
I'm very grateful to have free entry pass to many tourist attractions through my work. I dont know how families afford it. So so expensive 😱
So so utterly grateful I didnt drink yesterday. Thanks suze for your support as always at just the right time
I hope everyone has a great day on our vicarious Edinburgh jaunt 😂🤣👍😃

I am curious to know what you think. I still remember how furious my cousins were with me. They said I was being disrespectful. I was just not that impressed. I do remember the ceilings though.
Have fun love. ❤️

It's been awesome RAL, thanks for letting us tag along 😁 I've always wanted to go to Scotland. One day I'll visit personally.
Very, very early morning of day 12. Wore myself out and fell asleep ridiculously early last night.
Hope everyone is going well 😊

Hi all,
RAL, happy you are continuing to enjoy your holiday! My Dad used to work in Preston. We lived for 2 years in Chorley. He had a major stroke aged only 40, (I was 2 and a half) and we went back to N.Ireland as he could no longer work and my mother needed help with 3 kids and 6 months pregnant with my sister. We moved to a house on the same street as my mother's mother. My mum was so depressed, she was an absent parent, always at her mum's. Basically she and my Dad never spoke much again, other than the basics, and the stroke left him with violent rages. Not a nice childhood. I was on edge and anxious all the time. My very first sip of alcohol, sherry, at age 10, seemed to transport me to a warm, soothing place, that I had never known. I suppose trauma must do a number on a child's developing brain. All my siblings too, became heavy drinkers.
Zura, well done on your sober time!

Good afternoon Venus ❤️ maybe evening now......can't remember the exact difference. I ended up sleeping ANOTHER 4 hours, so close to 12 hours all up. Allergies have that effect on me. In early spring here we had the worst pollen levels on record apparently, made me feel better as I was bedridden with fatigue for a few weeks and thought I was seriously ill until I heard that. Oh good its "just" allergies 😂 anyway it's not booze related so I'm taking that as a win 😁
Hope you sleep/slept well RAL. That's alot of walking! I walk around my yard so much fetching gardening equipment and lugging soil and mulch and such I don't need to go for walks or get a gym membership 😂 be nice to wander around Scotland for fun though. Hope your having a lovely time despite the weather. It's nice to just have a change of scenery sometimes.
Awww Leshar, trauma is just awful stuff 😢 most definitely impacts addiction. Sorry for all you went through and sending healing to you. Thank you for the congratulations and sorry about the day number count, I'm retrying counting days as motivation.

Good morning dear Zura....we all just had a time change, so right now it is 7.40pm here. 14 hours behind Melbourne, is all I know.
Glad you got some good sleep love. s xx

Hi Tetrax! Thanks, Zura. Allergies can be crippling, I'm sorry.
I'm watching a Brit show through Acorn called Finding Alice. It's a drama/comedy and I'm enjoying it. Also enjoying Outlaws on Amazon video. I had a lovely sunny walk with a friend today.
