Binn's Clock, West End
Binn's has long gone having been taken over by the House of Fraser many years ago but the clock is still often referred to by it's original name.

Sign of the Times
Had occasion to be next door visiting the folks from the International Book Festival this morning. I'm sure Mr Salmond would already be away at work.

Museum of Flight
Well I have now been on Concorde but at considerably less than the speed of sound. Today is an Edinburgh holiday, Victoria Day, not greatly observed. Yesterday was blustery but today is a lot worse and the winds are disrupting flights. Flying on this aircraft would not have been great if you had any sense of claustrophobia.

Newhaven Harbour
The building in the background was the old fish market. A small market still runs there and there is now a very good retail fishmongers. There are also two restaurants.

Walkway.
Sticking with the redevelopment. This walkway and landscaping are at the end of the Western Harbour but just to the right, out of the picture, instead of buildings we have holes in the ground.

I wouldn't normally purchase this "newspaper", Edinburgh's daily evening paper, but I wanted something for the blog to reflect the day.

Princes Street
Princes Street would look a lot better if the third rate Corporate branded fronts of the shops could be done away with. Not a lot you could do with the modern excrescences though.
