I was there last year, too, and dream of going back. I built a lot of my trip around Anthony Bourdain’s remarks. But also saw an amazing indie rock band, Johnnie Flynn and the Sussex Wit while I was there at St Luke’s, a repurposed church out on the east side. It’s next to the famous cemetary. Glasgow’s Necropolis—I…

Aw, nuts. I was excited to give you tips on Glasgow, but I am realising several of the highlights I was going to mention have ceased to be over the last few years. [The Glasgow School of Art has had two devastating fires in the past four years. And it looks like The Arches, a legendary nightclub/music venue is now a…

Go to Anteaques. It is an amazing tea and antique shop with scones that are out of this world. You have to email them to get a seat, but it's totally worth it!

Sorry. I did you a scare. He’s not really this big. My boy, recovering at home after dental surgery yesterday. Nervous dog mom, had to power through work yesterday. Just glad to have him home now. On the mend. <3

I LOVED Edinburgh. I went last year with my mom. I don’t actually have off the beaten path suggestions as we were only there for a short time and hit the big things.

There’s a really good LGBT real ale bar (real ale = craft beer in the UK) on Montrose Terrace. It’s called The Regent. My sister and I found it randomly. We’re straight cis women, and found it very welcoming (why wouldn’t it be?). It had the best food we had all week, the cider was amazing and there’s some board games…

I stayed up late just to post on here, as the time difference usually means it's been going on for hours before I join. Hoping everyone's well and feeling loved and if not, then there's a Brit here willing to give a hug, virtual or in person, if needed.

It’s really a great city, I want to go back this spring if I can manage it.

I went to Edinburgh last year, no off the beaten path tips I’m afraid, but I loved the city. We had a great time, and everyone was so friendly, and it's a very walkable city. I may not be allowed to go back for saying this, but I didn’t like Irn-Bru, I’ve been advising people to avoid it, unless you really like the…

This is why I refer to him as the “Drama Queen” President.  

“In an exclusive with The Hill, President Trump said, “I don’t have an attorney general.””

You may all refer to me as Her Royal Highness Frances Prunella Snickerdoodle.

I am Baroness Prudence Rosamund Prickwillow the Stout. 😹

Can we start giving royals applicable names again? Like Sir Brooksbank the Charming but Dim,  Or Lady Eugenie of the Hat.

“I know he considers himself an outdoorsman and pays a lot of money to be led to wildlife in Africa that he then kills, but I’m not sure if he’s ever actually been to a hurricane or a flood...”

My Julie Chen take.

Love is a verb before it's a noun sometimes. You're doing everything right. 

Jones is living proof that this is a fallacy. The only reason he was banned from social media is because the left DIDN’T ignore him. Instead we pointed out that he was a hate-mongering psycho and eventually something was done. Do you honestly think Facebook or Youtube would have cared otherwise?
