My posting has gone on to the Bottom of Bath Street Page.

Carol

From Lawrence Marshall: Dear All I'm very sorry to have to let you know that the Scottish Executive Inquiry Reporters Unit (SEIRU) has allowed the appeal by Gregor Properties Limited against the refusal by the City of Edinburgh Council of planning permission to convert the ground floor of 28 and 28...

Carol

Hi Bob It is a compliment to Jonathan and a polite way of saying (in my opinion) Gregor Development / Properties / Shore are not real speculative developers. I don't know who the poster Sylvanian is but if you read his posting - he knows what I'm on about. I will come back and explain once I have ha...

Carol

In the earlier news reports the Veiled Lady was a Teaching Assistant but now the media refer to her only as a Teacher and there is a big difference between the two.

Hello Rex - what are you wearing from the shoulders down?

What a difference a day makes

It will be clear to anyone reading this and the Bottom of Bath Street thread that Jonathan is the REAL speculative developer here.

Carol

Dear Jonathan

Are you the owner of the ground floor accommodation at the foot of Bath Street and do you know if the residents in the old building above the pub (26 Promenade) will be notified?

Carol

Is it possible to activate the links into Appeal and Expenses in Bob's (most interesting) posting at the top of this page? At the moment it comes up as page unavailable.

Carol

Dear Brenda

Is there a difference between immediate neighbours and neighbours? I ask because only three flats were notified in this block (old tenement Foot of Bath Street / Promenade). Those were the three flats above the chip shop each with a side window looking on to the fenced land.

Carol

I'd be keen to know on what basis you selected these other moderators.

Carol

I wondered if the funding came from Council Tax or a Lottery Grant but most people say it is a Labour Party Funded Board.

Is this true because it should be impartial.

Carol

I voted it should have been left.

I didn't think the website was hilarious. I thought it was an outragous reaction to the lack of respect being shown to ordinary people in their lives.

Anything is worth a try when no-one is listening.

Carol

But have you tried HADDOCK fish fingers. Haddock fillets. Not to be confused with the reformed cod which parents feed to their children. They are also a bit more expensive.

Scotmid Ã‚Â£2.08

Tesco Ã‚Â£1.30 odds.

What can I say .......

Carol

Well, I like you Surrealist - you may have fuzzy boundaries but you are your own person and I think you'd make a better Lawrence Marshall than Lawrence Marshall.

Carol

My maternal ancestors were clock makers. They made large out door clocks as well. They also made watches, scientific instruments and were "working jewellers". Every community needs a chiming clock because people meet up and chat and ..... time passes. H R Millar who made the Police Station clock are...

Too Late to change anything. Too late now.

You should have done this last summer when people were pleading for your help.

Too late all round.

Hello Surrealist and Alex

The trouble with David Blunkett is that he has no vision.

That's what a friend says.

Carol

Yes, I'd like to read it as well but will have to wait for it to go online. Here at the Foot of Bath Street/Promenade .... it feels as if no-one knows we're here. We don't get a Portobello Reporter or Herald and Post nor do we get the dark blue paper recycling bags. We don't get Ikea Catalogues when...

Carol

If there is talk of removing topics from this Forum Board then Favourite Takeaway should be the first to go. Why single them out? It's just free publicity. I often wonder if the posters get larger portions next time they go in because they have flattered (and advertised) the establishment "on the co...

Carol

Can I bid for anything on this page? Seriously though, thank you Bob. I took advantage of the free virus download but had to get my technical friend to come round and sort out what had become a large complicated problem. I was downloaded but not installed- and was quite happy with that! McAfee was r...

Last Thursday my friend received a letter from a man who is researching the Codona Fairground Family. He explains that he is trying to trace any information about a Mr and Mrs Whittaker who were living in Portobello in the early 1900's. They were at one point involved with the Codona Fairground Fami...

Carol

The proposed car park, fuel station and superstore belong somewhere else and not at the entrance to Portobello.

Time to start thinking about these people now

Something else about Jet Ski's. A few years ago, I was at my front room window looking out to sea through a telescope. I saw a Jet Ski smash its way through a raft of eider ducks, leaving them flapping around in a terrible state. I watched the adults searching and gathering back as many of the scatt...

Don't forget it's a PROMENADE and since all vehicles on official business are aware of that, why do cyclists decide their own speed limits?

The white bin at the Foot of Bath Street, (which has nothing to do with the Beach Cleaners) should be moved up next to the black wheely bin. It should never have been put beside the Pillar Box - which is now, also used as a rubbish bin. I last posted a birthday card there in June and was told the en...
