As part of the UK-wide Indie News Week and the ‘No News is Bad News’ campaign from the Public Interest News Foundation, the Scottish Beacon (of which the Spurtle is a founding member) will hold its first public event in Edinburgh on 7 June.
CSG Projects Ltd wants to build a Richard Murphy-designed 5-bdrm home on land it owns between the office at 12 Blenheim Pl and Greenside Parish Church (24/01889/FUL).
This morning, to celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day, Spurtle despatched its Avian Affairs correspondent to the tranquil slopes of Upper Greenside.
Here, at 5.19 am, somewhere above the omnipresent hum and hiss of the OMNi Centre plant, is what they heard …
Blackbird, blue tit, chiffchaff, coal tit, herring gull, nuthatch, robin, song thrush, woodpigeon, wren, Eurasian drug dealer and common taxi.
Edinburgh Council and Edinburgh street performers have recently been discussing how to better manage street performances in the city centre.
The problem of amplified music (Issue 334, p. 3) may be comparatively new, but the difficulty of preventing music-related nuisance has troubled Edinburgh authorities for years.
Welcome to Edinburgh. @edinhelp
