Edinburgh is hoaching with rats, especially near Princes St

An old building was knocked down opposite where I live, for a week or two we were seeing rats running around our estate, problem seemed to go away on its own...

Yes, the gardens used to be a loch ages ago and the rats all live in the cellars under the buildings, now and again they have a flitting and head over the road into the gardens, never saw it myself but locals will tell you about it, I worked at 100 Princes St and the cellars were hoaching, they go under the street,the cellars I mean, not a place for the faint hearted3rdforum wrote:Is it?

I knew the gardens were an open sewer from the old town but I didn't realise that there are cellars under the street. Its a wonder Mary King's Close isn't infested with them

My brother in law and myself went down Mary King's Close as part of a tour, a few years ago. They turned off the lights at one stage so I started tickling my BIL's arse. The lights came back on and John never said a word. I finally said to him that night that I was surprised that he didn't turn and thump me one for tickling his arse. "nobody came near my backside" he said.
Note to self, if you are going to touch someone's arse, make sure its the correct one!
