I have a birthday approaching that starts with a 4 and ends with an 0. To celebrate Mrs Swiss is taking me away for the weekend, the May Day bank holiday weekend, and we're going to Edinburgh, somewhere neither of us have been since the late 1980s. So, to any of the readers of Bagging Area who know Edinburgh and have any ideas about the places to visit, bars to drink in, record shops to spend an hour or so in, or anywhere else that might be fun/cool/interesting/off the beaten track, please leave a comment or email ldotturner23atntlworlddotcom (replace dots and ats for symbols, I don't want tons of adverts for performance enhancing pills in my inbox thank you very much).
40. Jeez.

Don't be tempted to go and see the Fall!
Get Mrs Swiss to take you to the Witchery for dinner.
Drink in Mathers on Broughton Street and the Bow Bar on Victoria Street.
Record shops go to Cockburn Street, Avalanche, Fopp and a great dance shop at the bottom of the hill, whose name aludes me at the moment.
And no matter what anyone says 40 is certainly not painless.
I should definitely read Trainspotting before you go, and avoid running into Begsby.
Drew- thanks for the tips
H- thanks for your, er, advice
Forgot to mention SA. Do the ghost tour of the buried streets in the Old Town, it is well worth it, I assure you.
And take a wander down and have a look at our beautiful Parliament buildings.
