It's the #Easter holiday weekend, so of course the weather forecast is awful.
But that's *outside*.
Inside, shelves & tables of #books to be browsed in comfort, a whole room for younger readers to enjoy.
We're open all weekend, #Edinburgh !

A graphic image with text that reads Short Survey, Prize Draw, Have Your Say
AT the top of the image is a photo showing a row of tenement houses with cars, trees and grass in the foreground. The headline says Our Neighbourhood in 2040. The text below reads: Edinburgh has something special. To south and west of The Meadows and Bruntsfield Links lie Bruntsfield, Merchiston, Marchmont & Sciennes - mainly sandstone tenements and terraced homes with well established local facilities. Please help us prepare a Local Place Plan* that captures: What works well, what we like about the place we live and work, What residents want in 2040 / vision for future developments, Ideas for improvements to achieve that vision.
Have a say in the future of South Central Edinburgh – including #Bruntsfield, #Merchiston, #Marchmont & #Sciennes.
@banzaiedinburgh.bsky.social want to hear from you - fill out their survey today!

Next Thursday 2 April, the City of Edinburgh council Transport and Environment Committee will decide whether to address safety issues at this junction. Over 100 residents have shared their views on the dangers. We hope CEC will follow through!

Five storey Victorian stone tenements catching spring sunlight, lower sections in shade, clear, blue sky above
Gorgeous light, sky, and shadows in #Bruntsfield today

Looking down the road between tall, old, stone tenements, the sky above a mix of promising both rain and sunshine
Skies over #Bruntsfield vacillating between more rain showers or more spring sunlight.
Managed most of a day at busy work, and even to walk home rather than bus, which is a wee morale boost, & had hugs, which are huge morale boosts.
