Many many thanks for putting the time and effort into compiling all that information. I'm sure plenty of folks (including me) will find it very helpful indeed.

I actually leave on my birthday, so I am giving myself one of the best birthday presents I have ever had
Hi Marmalade, safe journey home and happy birthday. If you don't mind me asking where in the borders will you be?

We will be moving to the borders when we come back in September, we really like Kelso and surrounding areas.

Add me to the list of leavers - only 3 more weeks to go! Still lots of bitty things to do, have the car to sell but other than that, all furniture sold or given away, all documents scanned and saved on disc and flash drives. Very nervous - I have been in the USA for 23 years now, feel Americanised but still very homesick for the UK.

Having lived in the US for over 14 years...I understand your dilemma. Good luck.

A pub that had been in my home village of Coylton for at least a couple of hundred years, was torn down last year to make way for a housing development. It was located beside the church, the story goes that when the men would take the horses over to the pub for safekeeping in the stables behind the pub on Sundays, the men would have a "wee dram" to keep the cold out before and after the service.
