Sculpture Park, Granton Style
We have artworks along the front (extra)! All part of a Covid Memorial thing - some of them are pretty good, some not so much so in my humble opinion, but yes we’ll take them.
Then we set off on a perambulation via the Gasholder which was having an opening day thing; loads of kids getting their faces painted, queuing for ice-creams. We had an interesting chat with one Alan Fisher who is a volunteer at The ARC - the Granton Archive project. Then down the hill past the Walled Garden (sadly closed) to the Pitt to mosey round their food stalls and buy a loaf. And there were so many people and families - I can see that “Granton Waterfront” might just have legs. We shall see.
Home to plant out my new (replacement, grrr) raspberry canes and blueberry bush before taking in the Grand National. I think I owe the SK a fiver.
And later, we watched Kneecap on Amazon. Maybe my expectations were a bit low, and I feared it was going to be a bit heavy handed, but given the backdrop of what it was actually about it was pretty darned good, and most amusing - in a Danny Boyle, Trainspotting sort of way. Probably a whole lot better than the real band.
