A former work colleague of mine does Krav Maga. Cool story me. Welcome aboard.

It has some fancy £100 a dish restaurant in the basement (which we didn't eat in), but it is far more fitting as a hotel. Some great decor and odd ornaments. Costs a fucking bomb though so probably a one off. Great location next to Edinburgh Castle. My girlfriend did me proud for my 40th.

Somebody knew I was coming! Our room, The Old Rectory at The Witchery by the Castle. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Opeth "Damnation"

What a relaxing start to our Scottish trip. The serene St Mary's Loch. Soul repairing place. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Pics to follow next week.

So Monday next week - I will be staying here: http://thewitchery.com/Old-Rectory.html Gothic interior and its own turret staircase, I can't fucking wait!

I find the whole thing oddly comforting. It has a particular place of course, like now late in the evening with the sun fading and the tranquility needing some soundtrack to ease along the passage but to also keep you on your toes with its dark atmospherics.

Cities Last Broadcast "The Humming Tapes"

On leave for two weeks and off to Edinburgh Sunday morning. Can't fucking wait. Handed over all my clients without a hitch this week and have a clean slate going into the new job when I get back.

Incantation "Diabolical Conquest"

DISCLAIMER - MacabreEternal cannot be held responsible if this (intended to be) short post goes on and on and fucking on. This is a good point, this is one thing that the Brexit campaign denies you now. You can't be proud to be British and welcome other cultures, nationalities and ethnicities if they come to the (divided) United Kingdom. Johnson and Farage and all the other mini Mein Fuhrers in the Brexit camp are essentially dictating how you can feel as a proud denizen of your country of birth. I work alongside some EU migrants who are some of the smartest, most intelligent people I have met, however their overarching appeal to me is the way they have embraced our culture and yet never lost any of their own identity as Spanish, Portuguese or Greek nationals. They have enriched our culture by sharing theirs. I could go on forever about the EU and why essentially leaving achieves nothing more than seeing off one rich psychopathic prick of Prime Minister and replacing him with another even richer, more psychopathic, bigger prick. Replacing David Cameron with Boris Johnson/Nigel Farage is like wiping shit off your shoe and wiping it on your face! The economic impact was obvious and inevitable and for me just underlined the glass ceiling we had on the supposed "recovery" of the economy. If I can take one positive from this campaign is that it has actually mobilised people to do so something! The downside is they have done for all the wrong reasons of course. However this is the same energy that needs to be captured and channelled towards the real route of the country's problems. If we can hone that energy and concentrate it on fighting austerity, pushing back on the privatisation of public services and the complete lack of meaningful activity in terms of social housing (firstly building, secondly allocating) then there's a chance for us outside of the EU. It has taken less than 24 hours for the Brexit campaign to openly admit that the £350 million pounds a week back into the NHS was a lie and that the free movement of labour was not entirely to do with the EU, give it a month and I can see the tide turning against them even further.

Izegrim "The Ferryman's End"

This. I went through the two releases listed above and was completely unmoved.
