Calton Hill

To the east end of Princes Street in Edinburgh is Calton Hill, recommended for good views of the city.

A bridge engineer is always at work

There I was walking into Edinburgh along Leith Walk when I saw this bridge… it needed closer investigation as it is a rather imaginative use of a truss design. I estimate £500,000 - £750,000 would buy one of these for a 20m span.

I’m up in Edinburgh, well Leith in fact - there is an old fire engine building next door to where we are all staying…

Contact

Today i’m over in Nottingham. From looking at the mail that has been delivered since I was last here there is one christmas card that sums up the pointlessness of sending hundreds of cards to random people you may once have known but no longer keep in touch with. There is a letter to the Walker family from John and Pam, the writer “hopes all is well with you all” and promises they willl “be in touch in the new year”. The thing is that the Walker family moved out in early 2004, the property was then empty for around six months before I moved in during September 2004. Why on earth keep sending cards to people if you can’t be bothered properly keeping in touch with them? No doubt the house will get another card from John & Pam next year…

City Tower with added hands!

Over this weekend there is an art installation on the side of City Tower in Piccadilly Gardens. More information on the BBC website. Maybe tonight there will be more handprints projected onto the side…
