After the nightmare that was Halloween, it was a bright day out on the bike; and many miles clocked up too. But not without incident; by 0915 I was well and truly reminded why I hate people. A car driving at me on a segregated cycle path / footpath; the road 10 yards away. another car driving off the road, onto a pavement and back onto the road to get round a road block - the road has NEVER been open to the public; 2 drivers racing past parked cars at 50 mph heading for Marine Drive - within feet of me as I cycled the other way. And the best one - I am taking a photo in Muirhouse and someone drives in and parks in a completely empty car park right in front of me taking my photo; nowhere near the door to the building, no need to park in the shot, defying all logic.... cah...
Still - a really gorgeous day for being out; after the Ferry, I sped back onto town; Corstorphine and then Tollcross (anyone been  inside the Rosemount Buildings recently? There's a blip to be had there - all the doors and windows are being painted in primary colours; very stylised..!) 
Met her briefly as she went home to sleep - I mean - you know its bad when she's taking time off work to sleep....! Then onwards to Porty, a school collection and finally wound up home in the evening gloom around 5. 65km later. I love that I get paid to cycle that kind of distance as work. 
A couple of hours of work before an evening of laundry and cold shoulder. And haddock too. 

The Halloween shadows were still out the next day, looking kind of eerie...!
