Busy week

Well, it's been a busy week.

Monday,  I started a new post at work, back to being the new girl learning the ropes rather than the old hand who knows the issues inside out.  Spent most of the time trying to look busy, while masking the fact that I don't have a clue what I should be doing.  I know from past experience though that before long I'll be so busy I won't have enough time to do it all in.  Two meetings on Wednesday, including a trip to Glasgow.

On Wednesday I also took my mum to the new SSE Hydro in Glasgow to see Andre Rieu.  I knew nothing about him, but my mum's a fan and it was a birthday present.  I could appreciate the musicianship and the showmanship, but it's not really my cup of tea.  The audience loved it though, he really has some serious fans.  I thought a woman was going to faint when Andre was first waiting to enter the arena!  Here's a picture of the man himself (from the big screen)...

As for the Hydro, there was plenty of legroom but boy are the seats uncomfortable.

Saturday, I went to the Christmas Market in Edinburgh, got there early so it wasn't too busy and the weather wasn't that bad.  Had a good look around, but didn't buy anything.  I did have a Bratwurst though, what's a trip to a Christmas market without one!

This week, I also finally managed to get a picture of Charley where he's almost smiling...
