Re: Holyrood Walk Of Fame, Saturday 27th June 2015

Hello, we'll meet at the Dundas Street exit / entrance that also leads to the lower level to give the smokers maximum value, and yes, we will assemble in Edinburgh at the main concourse as planned - albeit a tad later due to the train taking longer. :D :D :D
