The Firth from the City

Glasgow has the Clyde, London the Thames, Paris the Seine, Boston the Charles;  but I have rarely thought of Edinburgh as 'having' the Forth, even through the years of being in the capital frequently.  Then you look down from Queen Street , for example, and you remember yet again that the Forth is right there.

An exhibition visiting day today!  First Robert Colquhoun and Robert MacBryde at the Modern 2; then a January visit to the Turner watercolours at the Mound; then The BP Portrait Award , Beauty By Design and  Remembering the Great War  exhibitions at the Portrait Gallery.  All the above punctuated by coffee and a healthy lunch as well as a visit to the Nespresso shop to buy the 'proper' cups from which to drink a lungo!   

Such fun!
