Getting Home Drunk
I know where I'm staying....no I don't...
Drink Up
As you may have noticed, drinking lots is an important part of life in Edinburgh. The Scots love a wee drink, and we love discovering their culture. Fortunately, with over 750 pubs, theyve made it easy! Getting home when you are in a 'delirious' state is actually surprisingly easy. Everyone seems to make it.
Getting home
Before you go out take precautions. Make sure you have your 'blue card' that we give you in your pocket. The phone number and address is on it. Second just remember that we are behind the Burger King, across from the Balmoral. That makes it easy.
Walk or fly?
To get back, you can usually walk. Its not far from any of the pubs and clubs. The taxi's in Edinburgh provide a great service, and will always help you get home. Or, just ask other people. We are near the Balmoral Hotel, which is a major landmark, or the Guildford Arms, which, being a pub, most Scots know where that is.
