@verbivore,

Hiya verbivore, thanks for dropping by, sorry you're so busy these days that we don't see more of you. The moderators have removed the spammer's post hence you couldn't find it. Bosun is home again with Mrs. Beagle and it feels very good. Hang in there verbi things will turn around and will get easier for you. In Australia we say "Life is not meant to be easy".

I was there - jumping - dancing - singing - laughing - hugging my best friend's daughter (she loves the Proclaimers as much as I do)

I shouted out as many yabbermates names into the ether as I could while we were singing

that was fun

@ehBeth,

They told us they'll be back in town in a few weeks to premier their film!

A MUSICAL based on songs by the Proclaimers and set in their hometown of Leith is to be premiered - in Canada.

Movie bosses have snubbed Edinburgh for the premiere of Sunshine on Leith, instead choosing to roll out the red carpet 3000 miles away in Canada.

The cinematic adaptation of the hit musical will be unveiled for the first time at the famous Toronto Film Festival on September 9.

Twins Charlie and Craig Reid, otherwise known as the Proclaimers, said they were thrilled to be going global.

The film is tipped to be Scotland's answer to Mamma Mia and is expected to bring more tourists to the city, but one Leith councillor has branded the snub a slap in the face for locals.

Councillor Gordon Munro said: "I didn't know The Proclaimers had emigrated.

"I would have thought the premiere would be here in Leith and they would have done it for the community, given what it's about.

"The obvious thing for me, was to have some sort of premiere at Ocean Terminal and have the red carpet out. It could have had some sort of screening at Easter Road. It makes you think the whole thing was just done for a film festival."

The film tells of two soldiers returning to Edinburgh after serving in Afghanistan.

It was produced by award-winning filmmaker Andrew Macdonald, who worked on Shallow Grave and Trainspotting. It stars veteran Glasgow actor Peter Mullan, Little Voice star Jane Horrocks and Paul Brannigan, who shot to fame in The Angel's Share last year.

The Reid twins, who have a scene-stealing appearance in their former neighbourhood, confirmed they would attend the premiere.

An Edinburgh premiere is expected later in September before the film is released across the UK on October 4.

Most scenes were filmed in Glasgow to keep costs down.

@ehBeth,

I liked the music too, but had problems understanding the text because the instruments were too loud. I understand the YouTube videos much better. And it's nice that the Proclaimers help their audience achieve their fitness goals with uplifting songs about walking 500 miles and 500 more.

My favourite version is the one that involves David Tennant and all the crew of Dr Who, when he finished up - and includes The Proclaimers - apparently David Tennant is a big fan!

@ehBeth,

Hi all!

Just been reprimanded for playing that video song - house full of teenagers!!
Where has this summer hols gone?

All going well so far in our house hold! S-girl has got into Uni to do Photography degree, she is moving into digs in Plymouth, will miss her loads. F-boy has his results tomorrow for his GCSE exams. Proud of him, he has done well, although he is still having trouble with his right foot, the symptoms are aching and feeling odd in the skin of the top foot radiating to his shin. We went to the doctors about 3 weeks ago but he said it is a trapped nerve but it has continued, so may mean another trip to the doc.

Am glad so many people are doing well and I send hugs to all, especially to our Dutchy.

Hugs and stuff xx

@annis,

Hi annis. Thank you for the hugs. So pleased things are running well for you and yours. Congratulations to S-girl for getting into University to do her degree and F-boy for getting better apart from the odd niggle. Been home a week and gradually improving, nurse and physio visit me daily, treat my heels and give me exercises. Still relying on my walking frame around the house but slowly getting there. Very cold outside so it is nice sitting near a cosy fire doing my favourite crosswords. (((Tulip)))

Waves to the crew from downunder.

@Dutchy,

(((((((((((((((((((Danny)))))))))))))))))))))

Just to let y'all know, unfortunately Danny is back in hospital yesterday as one of his wounds has been a tad acky and they are taking him into theatre tomorrow to drain and clean out. At present, we don't know if there is infection - but they should know more tomorrow. As the stents put in were plastic, antibiotics will not be able to clear up any infection in that area (that wound is OK so far) so there's the possibility of having the bypass re-done if any infection spreads.

Danny's not too happy as you can imagine and this is so frustrating for all his family. His son and one of the g-kids visited with him today so that was a blessing - and it's been a long fight dealing with everything he has gone through since January. Sad

Anna is sounding strong - she took him spaghetti bolognaise last night as Danny really isn't coping with the hospital food, I do believe he has a complete mental block with the food now - but he.must.eat... so, Anna will take in what she can to keep his strength up.

Please keep your healing thoughts, prayers and posivibes going for him and for him to be able to get home as soon as possible.

Anna and I do talk openly - frankly, directly - we don't pussyfoot around the hard talk. Danny is tired now of being in hospital, so frustrated - so, if you believe in anything, please send those good wishes to him. Anna doesn't believe he's ready to give up quite yet and she has no intention of letting him - but he's also not prepared to stay in hospital...

so we need to give him a whole bunch of strength to keep fighting the health malfunctions and to get him home where he belongs.
