things to know

Martha Wainwright (22/10/08, Edinburgh Picturehouse) - review

Based between a betting shop and a hearing assistance shop, the Picturehouse is filled with wood and richness. It has retained the feel of a cinema and the acoustics are great. The layout of the venue is intriguing therefore – with an upper and lower level viewing area, but retaining a fairly intimate atmosphere.

The crowd was disappointingly quiet, and the support act largely unimpressive. The trumpet playing by one half of this duo was the best part to be honest.

Bolt Ons Don't Save Edinburgh Money

Edinburgh's Forth Road Bridge is cracking up. That's the verdict of engineers, who've replaced cracked bolts on its hangers, that hold the cables to the carriageways.

The bolts are expected to have a 30-year lifespan but broken bolts have been discovered just 10 years in. Other work that needs completing includes dry air blowers to be installed to halt corrosion on the bridge's cables.

Going Postal in Edinburgh takes on new meaning...

Do you live in Edinburgh and had fewer birthday cards last year than expected? Between April-October 2007, an Edinburgh postman failed to deliver 1500 letters, instead choosing to hide them in his car an dthen his home.

Scott Hamilton, 30, claimed he was under stress and the factor to blame was an accident over a decade ago. Sheriff Derrick McIntyre, presiding, said the crime should be dealt with by a fine of £1000, calling the offense a 'breach of trust'.

Review: Fleeto, St Bride's Centre, Edinburgh

  • gang made up of local drama group participants
  • 4 professional actors
  • sparse props and deliberately low key lighting effects

all make the acting and ideas behind this production stand out starkly. Almost as sharp as the blade used to such effect in the play.

Balls broken in Edinburgh

Edinburgh's Time Ball is to be renovated, thanks to £50,000 of Heritage Lottery Fund support. Edinburgh's second-most-famous timepiece after the One O'Clock Gun can be found on Calton Hill, on top of the Nelson Monument.

The project is part of a scheme called the 12 Monuments, and this work will hopefully reconcile Edinburgh's well-known couple. The Time Ball has not been in operation now for 18 months.
