Today the weather improved and we could see sunshine.
After breakfast Neil drove us off to the airport to find out where the Europcar rental car return was, and how to get from there to the Airport Departure lounge. In the end it was only a 300 yard walk!
Then we came back for a cup of tea before heading off to "The Gair", Curriemuirend, Colinton, Midlothian, (Title on Neil's picture of the Gair) at Juniper Green Village which J.K.Laidlaw (1860 to 1931) built in 1897 for 700 pounds. That paid for the land, the architect (Edward C.M. Maidman) and the building.

If you look carefully to the left of the latin motto - "Fides Probata Coronat" you can just see the initials J K L - John Kinlay Laidlaw
