On the Edinburgh TB Forum we'd nominated the Caledonian Backpackers as the hostel to book into, so over the weekend there'd be about 10 of us staying there. Was pretty cool. Bondy, Ash, Mat & I got upgraded to a 12 bed dorm iinstead of being in the massive 38 bed dorm… Ghosts Tales and Demonic Circles

We were staying in Caledonian's backpacker hostel which was only £8 a night! Another steal! At the hostel I checked in and found my bed in the MASSIVE 38 bed dorm. The hostel was OK, nothing too special and not exactly the cleanest place in the World… Back to Edinburgh!
