One for @worldbollardassoc.bsky.social - a disappointing lack of bollardness from that flimsy pole. No match for a determined SUV.

This coming Saturday!

Big corten steel planter with a mix of flowering daffodils and evergreen shrubbery. Slightly dishevelled.

Arthur Street planter update: Spring has sprung, the daffs are up. It's a very windy site, so they're at all sorts of Leith Walk angles...

🦇 Bats do not make nests, but choose various places throughout the year to roost. Bats roost in houses, both new and old but some species prefer hollow trees, or caves. In buildings they often shelter behind hanging tiles and boarding or in roof spaces.

I've always liked City Cafe, Blair Street. Not changed much since the 90's. Pool tables, diner style food and big milkshakes.

That's very kind of you. I thought about spiky plants, but it would make retrieving litter less fun. There's lots of herbacious perennials about to pop up, so the planter should be jammed with vegetation soon... 😀🌿🪴

Plonkers! Someone tried to uproot & snap wee silverbirch too. We're experienced in keeping it looking nice despite plonkers (you'll see wee tree has it's own support now). #Leithlife
