From a very windy hilltop in Fife, light on the Forth and the dark shapes of Arthur's Seat and the Salibury Crags.

Tony, Stockbridge

The waters have abated but Tony is still festooned with debris from the last high water.  The Bonnington Gormley is still face down and under the surface and will probably be like that all winter.

Sunday 23 October 2011

More flood works on the Water of Leith, including a temporary bridge to get the heavy plant to where it is needed.

Puddle

Raining heavily and the car park drains can't cope.  You can tell winter's coming, the rain is getting colder.

Swimmer

The local sports injury clinic goes in for amusing window displays with their skeleton.  I took this last week and am posting it as the heatwave has given way to serious rain and excessive gloominess.
