Quality parking from Omnicare today: not only driven the entire car onto the pavement, but over a pedestrian crossing at a busy junction.

Insanely stupid, dangerous & illegal. Pharmacies are supposed to help, not endanger... Also, how the heck do they drive this off without more reckless endangerment of pedestrians & other drivers? They'll be pulling out on the wrong side of the road, over a crossing. Ye gods ...

Soggy Princes Street today. The way the winds are now increasing as the storm spreads this way, a brolly is probably not advisable, unless you want to fly like Mary Poppins...

Comfortably ensconced in one of my favourite places, the Filmhouse café-bar. I have book, beer, and then the documentary screening of Fedayin (with q&a after) shortly.

This is how days off should be...

A pair of sandals just chilling in the street. I assume the former occupant of this footwear was vapourised by angry aliens, leaving only this summer footwear behind.

Tickets booked for special screening of the oldest surviving animated feature film, Lotte Reiniger's gorgeous Adventures of Prince Achmed, as the Filmhouse reopens this weekend.

1926 - nearly a century old, & being screened with live music. Wonderful.

More @cymerafestival fun, watching Adrian Tchaikovsky & Peter F Hamilton chatting with Eilian J Morgan. Scary to think the first time I did an event with Peter was back in the 90s!

Enjoying @cymerafestival some very interesting author panels so far, more to follow after brief hydration break (yes, I mean beer), and bumped into a bunch of people, some I haven't seen in ages. Good to be with my tribe...
