First, you need to have a Union Jack to wave at all times.
Secondly, the temperature is liable to be between 60 and 80 and probably
rain at times. So be prepared! Clothing is casual very like an ASA
conference.
Thirdly with the exchange rate you will need lots of dollars. $2=£1.
Clothing is expensive here, Brits stock up in the USA now. Petrol sorry gas
is £1 a litre i.e.. $2 a litre or about $7.50 for a US gallon which is less
than our gallon.
If you drive remember that we drive on the left and most cars are not
automatic which saves petrol/gas but requires more brains.
There is a tremendous amount to see round Edinburgh.
sorry I wont be there as I am going to a conference in Bavaria where I will
keep Stephen Moshier in check
