We won the cup!

It wasn't pretty, and it certainly wasn't fun, but we got there in the end - Heart of Midlothian, Scottish Cup Winners 2006. A nailbiting afternoon of high drama ended with us scraping through on penalties against "plucky-little-Gretna".

On a personal level, Saturday brought justification of a hunch I had back in January. Our travels have all been planned around potential football dates, right up to Saturday's cup final. After returning from Hampden, last night was spent in raucous celebration at the Caley Sample Room, today was spent at the parade in Edinburgh, and tomorrow we are off again on our travels.
