Last week we suggested that the Mad Hatter should avoid gate-crashing the Royal Garden Party as the Queen’s Bodyguard in Scotland the Royal Company of Archers would be on duty.

Entries are continuing to come in for the Greyfriars Bobby Childrens’ Painting Competition. The latest batch of artwork arrived from the pupils of South Morningside Primary School, Edinburgh. This would have pleased Forbes Macgregor who wrote ‘Greyfriars Bobby The Real Story at Last’ as he was the school's headmaster.

Edinburgh City Council Parks Department has approved the One o’ Clock Gun & Time Ball Association’s proposal to hold a Floral Clock Day on 10th June 2011. Blue the Association's mascot will be on duty at the gates of Princes Street Gardens in case the Mad Hatter turns up.
