432b. Fri 22/6/18: Thomson’s Bar, Edinburgh

Beer: Stewart Brewing Jack Back 3.7%

The first bar we hit after arriving in Edinburgh for a boozy long weekend with some old friends. Hence, I start with a friendly session beer. It's Friday afternoon and the bar's not that busy. This bar was chosen from the CAMRA Good Beer Guide app on my phone. It's rather a low key start to proceedings (but it certainly picked up the pace as the weekend progressed). We are meeting a friend of Will's later who lives in Edinburgh for a meal at the oldest curry house in the capital. More of the divine Cath and her local guide skills later.

Most of the talk is about our respective trips down here (James and I flew from Luton, Will the train from Manchester). Also about how much we think Steve will have changed (it turns out not much). He is arriving tomorrow from Glasgow and we haven't seen him for 25 years.

As the curry house is a bit of a walk away, we have the one pint here and head off.
