A day at the Edinburgh Christmas Market on Sat 19 Dec. The stalls and big wheel in East Princes Street Gardens, the Castle above, mulled wine and Christmas shopping along George Street. The coach leaves Lanarkshire in the morning, drops you in the city centre and heads home in the evening, so nobody drives, nobody carries bags round a train and nobody stands on a freezing platform at Waverley.
