Picardy Place

The boys were duly delivered back to their mother. And off into town I did go for the promise of a roast chicken dinner. My usual Inverleith / Canonmills / Bellevue / Broughton St / Leith St / Bridges etc route up town. When out of left field came the Cigs camper van ( I say leftfield but it's actually East Claremont Street )

Don't panic.  The camera is in the rucksack so it'll need to be a phone shot. 
But the lights change at the crossing by the Traquair Centre. I stop. But the lights at the Cask and Barrel have stopped the van. I give chase on green. But guess what? No sooner has the van pulled away from the lights and they go back to red in front of me! But still no panic.  It's Sunday and no vehicle will outrun me on a bike. And so it proves. Strava shows my 3rd best time ever up Broughton St and as we hit Picardy place I finally got my shot. 

There was blackberry and apple crumble later too.
