Thank you to all who gave guest-books to me to pass on to others. Saving trees is cool! :-)

Handovers are at the shops at Gilmerton Dykes Street for now, EH17 8PL

The best times for me are Thursday mornings and Saturday afternoons but there’s also some time Wednesday and Monday mornings (Friday afternoons for 'reading emergencies' only).

Literally,
