A review of Noughts & Coffees, City Centre

December 14, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is a trend I welcome; board games are popular again. The return of board game somehow happened while missing the hipster trap and becoming an accepted mainstream thing.

Review of Teuchters Landing, Leith

January 14, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Teuchters Landing is my reminder to give places a second chance. I first went to Teuchters Landing with my boss at the time to impress a client. It was nice; expensive fish, expensive wine and we sat in a lovely conservatory by the Water of Leith while swans basked in the sunshine. It was nice […]
