David Hume in Edinburgh

Outside Edinburgh High Court on the High Street I met David Hume the philosopher. He must spend a lot of time there as he had his own chair. We had an interesting chat, as a philosopher, rationalist and a leading light in the enlightenment that's to be expected. He wasn't too bad either. I'm not sure how his rationalism coped with chatting with a red dragon, I suspect he isn't going to mention it to many people. He might prefer it to the fact that people rub his big toe for luck.
