Actua...Ha ha - yes! Business trips with benefits. <br /><br />Actually, I have been quite lucky with business trips. It was a business trip that took me to Durham last Autumn. <br /><br />And some while ago now, it was a business trip that took me to Stoke on Trent and I took the opportunity to visit the central museum which was chock full of the most amazing china and porcelain.

We'd been there a couple of years before when there was a bit of a mediaeval event going on and thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm a John Rebus fan too and hadn't realised the Oxford Bar existed so thank you for sharing that. We'll have to seek it out next time we go. I love Edinburgh, it's such historic and picturesque city. The hills are something else though ;-) Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14223691871102821084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-296486879102675766.post-26887539883640454432018-03-07T20:56:37.415+00:002018-03-07T20:56:37.415+00:00What an enjoyable travelogue, especially for peopl...What an enjoyable travelogue, especially for people like me who have never been. You are right about that sculpture - truly magnificent and very gratifying that it is by a "local". And what a lovely place to stay the night.
