Me detects a hint of sarcasim in you voice DM :D Yes the rain did hold of and we did attend the fireworks display. Spectacular it was 30,000 people standing in the Princes street watching the fireworks display while the Scottish Chamber Orchestra played in Prince's Street gardens with the music being played on loud speakers. We nearly didn't go as it was pouring down with rain most of the day but it eased of at tea-time.
