If I could ask you just to bear with me for a few seconds before I get to showing you “How to Pick the Perfect Business”. I promise you it will be worth it!
In August of this year I had a great day out in our capital city of Edinburgh…
It was a beautiful sunny Saturday afternoon when we arrived and we had a great time just wandering around watching all the different street acts perform at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
There were a variety of different acts performing that afternoon – everything from acrobats to jugglers to street magicians to the more traditional Scottish Piper dressed in full regalia…playing the bagpipes! (Made me proud to be Scottish)
There was also very authentic looking street statues…you know the ones I mean – where people dress up as historical characters and make themselves look like statues!
Some of them looked the real deal…
We actually went through to Edinburgh to watch my nephew Fraser perform with the two bands he plays in – “The Marching Band” and “Withered Hand” nice little plug for them there! LOL
We decided to make a day out of it because the first band Fraser plays with wasn’t due to perform until 8pm.
So, after watching the street acts during the day and frequenting a quaint little Italian restaurant where we had some good food, which was duly washed down with a lovely bottle of vino…we then proceeded to the Queens Halls – the venue of the GIG where we were then thoroughly entertained with a night of live music!
Fraser and his band mates were fantastic! Nothing can beat live entertainment! Don’t you think?
Anyway, to cut a long story short after the gig we got a taxi cab from the venue to Waverley train station to catch the last train home to Stirling…
As I exited the cab and walked round the corner to check the departure board to see which platform our train was leaving from I reached into the left breast pocket of my jacket for my I-Phone and my heart sank as I suddenly realized it wasn’t there….
OMG my whole life is on my phone..
It must have dropped out of my pocket in the taxi cab ride to the station – so panic stricken I quickly ran back around the corner thinking I’ll be able to catch the cab driver before he drives off..
To my absolute horror….
All that was visible to me was a sea of black cabs like the one I had stepped out of moments earlier. There must have been 30 – 35 of them all black in colour and similar to the one that I had just used – I think they call them Hackney cabs!
Most of them are short lived and don’t last! Having said that I do understand how you feel and how hard it can be to separate the real deals from all the fakes and garbage out there…
The Future is Looking Brighter Everyday!
Enjoy Life More…
To your continued success,
