TALES OF THE UNEXPECTED
Recent Volcanic disruptions were certainly unexpected and not even Roald Dahl could have written a more twisted story. I wonder did you hear the infamous theme tune if you were one of the unlucky stranded passengers. We don't want to do our airline friends out of business but wouldn't you rather be sure of reaching your destination when you want, without potential disruptions caused by an event of God or any other force of nature? It's not a ground breaking solution - stay in the UK and better still hop in a car, train or bus and head to the Athens of The North this Summer. Your customary welcome awaits you.

BRITAIN'S GLORY?
Instead of looking back over 2009, we'll put our best foot forward to this year with great promise and anticipation. A year of hope & glory? Well, in sporting terms there's always optimism for achievement, especially The Six Nations (I'll not say who we'll be supporting!). Then there's The Open Championship, this July in St Andrews and of course the return of Schumacher battling it out against Brits Hamilton and Button, to get the F1 season off to a good start. Not to mention The World Cup we'll still be cheering north of The Border.
In financial terms, there's mixed opinion but for better rather than worse, and the same too for 6 May - a significant date in this year's calendar where probably the latter sentiment applies!
Whatever you do this year, make it a winner and celebrate success at The Knight Residence. Your formula for a championship welcome.

Happy Halloween
This ancient Celtic festival is known as Samhain, a celebration of the end of the harvest season in Gaelic culture, sometimes regarded as the "Celtic New Year". Traditionally, the festival was a time used by the ancient Celtic pagans to take stock of supplies and prepare livestock for winter stores. The ancient Celts believed that on October 31 the boundary between the living and the deceased dissolved, and the dead become dangerous for the living by causing sickness or damaged crops.
Costumes and masks worn at Halloween goes back to the Celtic traditions of attempting to copy the evil spirits or placate them, in Scotland for instance where the dead were impersonated by young men with masked, veiled or blackened faces, dressed in white..watch out for them! Join us to celebrate Samhain and take part in Edinburgh's spectacular procession and pyrotechnic feast …
