    Potentially - remind me, is it PY or not-PY? There was talk of an alternative and an alternative date, so I'm well confused...

    well there is a lack of any general feeling/direction.

    2moro will be not-PY @ Colettis (just down from Usher Hall) on the proper PY date.

    Next week would PY (or not-PY) and not on the PY date.

    Unless its hammering down, I'll be there 2moro.

    Oh I was under the impression tomorrow was PY on PY date and next week was not PY on not PY date. Most confusing! I can only do the 2nd due to a German.

    I'm sitting on my todd at the moment. No worries though.

    The lady behind the desk said she'd given up on us as aparently she thought we were all coming at 7:15. I've referenced the wind and mumbled something about ice. Seems to have placated her.

    Bit of faff at the racks at Usher Hall, taking lights off, then me going up the street to double check where 55 was then back down made me slightly late. I was sen=cond in. The woman, whom I took to be the senior member of staff took my order, seemed disappointed I did not want breakfast.

    I was second in. There ended up being six of us. The tables were fine for thst. The coffee was good, not too bitter, £1.80 for an americano, good value. THe place is lovely. THe acoustic does not work for even a small group of six.

    Next week it has to be PY but on the first Friday of the month.

    “Next week it has to be PY on the first Friday of the month.”

    So... what hardy souls might be at PY the 2nd tomorrow? Is Soderberg even open? Our office is open from 10am, considering heading in for a while.

    Went to PY once for Dec PY and they had closed for a fortnight. Phone up cheerful waitress unhurt and ask her to look in her crystal ball for tomorrow.

    My old hybrid I had out this affy has a new bell I must have forgotten I put on, a most clear and sonorous ding

    Assuming I'm less broken by sinusitis (in many ways this has been a very well timed bit of weather!) I'll plan to be there aout 9.15 (as office not open till 10, if no-one else shows up I don't want to have to hang out for hours). Facebook suggests they were open yesterday...

    @gembo - we had visitor so I was later than hoped. Just got her on train to Glasgow.
    Chatted to other 'non-forum' cyclist who was finding it tough. Think he was at Uni. Never cycled in so much snow before.

    QM busy clearing snow and putting onto MMW. This appreciated by XC skier. I thought shovel guy got bit close to scooping up trike!
