A pint with Baker.
« on: May 06, 2008, 09:55:08 PM »
I'm just back from a couple of beers with Rob Baker, who is on a tour of Scotland at the moment with some friends from his native Somerset. We sat outside a harbour pub in Broughty Ferry, looked across the River Tay and raised a glass to all our absent friends on this site. And I mean absent. My God, it's been quiet here. Anyway, we had a fine time and it was good to catch up after, we reckon, about ten years since our last get-together.
That's it, really. There were hardly any naked women or sheep involved.

I won't believe it until I hear Rob's side of the story.

I left him in the pub with his friends. They had just ordered several bottles of wine so I doubt if there will be "his side of the story".

Broughty Ferry in the sunshine sounds great, Roger. Sorry the sheep didn't turn up. They can be a let down.

See you in Rothesay soon.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

It sounds as though you speak from experience, Malc.  :D

I had a bright red jumper once. I always wondered...
I apologise, in advance.

Heard about red herrings but that's ridiculous.
