Just wondering if anyone has a wee update for us out of towners..:wink:

Will be looking to come up to Edinburgh on saturday, BUT, it depends what the roads are like and if the Leadburn/Penicuik areas are ok? Can't seem to get any detailed info at the moment......:thumbsup:

Most of the main roads seem to be ok, give yourself an extra hour or so to get in just in case.

If travelling by bus - I'd check the latest with "First Scottish" tomorrow.

It's still a restricted service they're running today by the looks of it.

Travelling by car, :worried::crazy: father-in-law is desperate to get to the game.....by the sounds of it the roads are not too bad-ish.

Will give myself plenty time if I do decide to come up :wink:....I can pick you up Toaods+ if you like?

no plans as yet, waiting to see if M wants to go or not.

Just went to collect her from school - roads here are no problem at all and a big Double-decker 62 flew passed.

No problem, I've just come-down with a stinking cold, so the chances are probably slimmer than first thought....Never mind the snow, man flu.:wink:

Bang on cue...:greengrin looks like I'm going to the game after all as my father-in-law has been on the phone and been asking everyone in the town " Is the road to Edinbra ok? " :greengrin

As I say, he is desperate to go. 76 years young yesterday...:top marks

Apparently the roads are OK

Just a couple of showers in Peebles but nothing that will prevent us from getting to the game.
