Trouble at t'mill.
Jul. 7th, 2005 07:18 pmThere's something up in Edinburgh. I was just on the Meadows and there were 13 vans of polis headed eastwards. The city-centre's closed off. The staff at the blood bank thought it was either going to be a) a bomb scare or b) G8 demonstrators in trouble again. Better not be the latter - they've pissed off too many people around here already.
A few seconds later - According to the BBC it's due to a suspect package on a bus. Good (as the likelihood is it's just someone's shopping).
There were people on Princes Street earlier. I think perhaps today was not a day to be risking trouble in a city centre. Mind you, there seem to be no shortage of people in Edinburgh at the moment paying no attention to whether what they're doing will do any good.
