A lean green litter picking team from the renewable energy section of Virgin Money were out with us this morning at Stockbridge.

A successful wade from the Deanhaugh path to St Bernard's well removing nine bags of rubbish from the river.

Edinburgh Episcopal Cathedral, visited this afternoon, is a must-have for #AdoorableThursday.

Originally a girnal (grain storage). The coat of arms (of the Incorporation of Baxters) reads 'God's Providence in our Inheritance' and includes a symbol representing the paddles used to place bread in the oven. (@threadedinburgh.scot will correct me if I'm wrong)

Somewhat confusingly, both Edinburgh's cathedrals are dedicated to St Mary. This is the other one, the Episcopal Cathedral, not hiding its light under a bushel in the West End.

Rain expected later, starting to feel humid

A very tired looking Victorian theatre

The King’s Theatre in Edinburgh reopens later this year after a several years long renovation. I’m guessing they’ve yet to do the outside because it’s giving me bingo hall about to be condemned energy.

We’re looking at art that explores home for this week’s #OnlineArtExchange with @artukdotorg.bsky.social.

📸Our pick is Paul Duke’s No Ruined Stone. Duke received the RSA Morton Award in 2016. This work references the housing scheme where he was born and lived until the age of 19.
