Horses, Buses and Scooters

Heading around the town during the week there was the Duke of Wellington on his horse, eyeing up the Balmoral Hotel, perhaps for a "wee Pint" in view of the warm weather we are having for a change. Princes Street must have been a wonderful place in the day of the horse and carriage, followed by the early buses and trams.


Now we have more than enough buses, in fact there is barely room for cars at times so when the new trams MAYBE arrive - it will be a bit of a squeeze, especially when the trams are doing away with only the 22 Bus and perhaps the Airport Express No 100
But the intrepid scooter is making a serious revival, our man with his mirrors was accompanied by a large posse, but I am still a bit wary about all these wing mirrors, must cause a lot of drag.
