As well as having the misfortune of watching Montrose lose their first league match of the season on Saturday, I also enjoyed the company of two of my fellow Scottish bloggers, The Tomahawk Kid and Big Rab of The Ben Lomond Free Press.
Both Rab and TK are Sons of the Rock, and both had made the pilgrimage to Montrose to see Dumbarton continue their push for promotion to Division Two. I worked with The Tomahawk Kid for a year or so when we were both employed by A Major Engineering Company, but Saturday was the first time I'd seen him in a few months.
TK and Rab have known each other since they were just wee boys, but it was the first time I'd had the opportunity to meet Rab.
So, an hour before kick-off, we met in the British Legion adjacent to Links Park for a mini blogmeet.
I believe a good time was had by all, although Rab and TK were more pleased with the result than I was. Oh, and Rab did voice displeasure at cups of Bovril that were described as espresso-sized.
And I thought it was us east coasters who were supposed to be grippit.

Aww that's excellent- I've never met any of my fellow bloggers. Was it a bit weird?
Missy it was braw as they say in Montrose. I hadn't met Mark before but he's a fine fellow even if he supports a no hope team.
But bloody hell! those cups! I've had bigger drams than my cuppa in the second half!
