Synopsis
As summer blooms in Edinburghs gardens and Bertie Pollocks birthday appears on the horizon, all at 44 Scotland Street is not cake and sunshine. Newlywed Angus Lordie has been booked by his bride into what he must not call the loony bin; Bruces first encounter with hot wax brings more anguish than he bargained for; and Berties birthday dreams of scout camp and a penknife look set to be replaced by a game of Royal Weddings and a gender-neutral doll. But fate, an amorous Bedouin and the Dubai Tourist Authority conspire to transport Berties mother Irene to a warmer if not a better place, and once again in Scotland Street the triumph of human kindness over adversity gives cause for celebration.
