@edinburghbug.bsky.socialYou'll have to wait for the outcome of a candid and interesting meeting.

@edinburghbug.bsky.socialClearly they haven't tried OC's pasta.
@edinburghbug.bsky.socialOh.
@edinburghbug.bsky.socialWe for one welcome the EN's conversion to straightforward factual reporting. (OK, they called it 'controversial', but when Our Curator cooks pasta it's 'controversial')
@edinburghbug.bsky.social'Candid' š P.S. Sorry you're leaving...never too late to stage a comeback!
@edinburghbug.bsky.social@edinburghbug.bsky.social5-part thread. N.B. Edinburgh & Lothians decision-makers...this is a cautionary tale, NOT an example to follow.
@edinburghbug.bsky.socialRead almost any Bluesky post written by an American and it's difficult not to wonder WTH they're on about.
@edinburghbug.bsky.socialMotoring expert says the BBC's excitable coverage of self-driving cars is a load of toot.

@edinburghbug.bsky.socialbut fair.
@edinburghbug.bsky.socialNo, not good enough.
@edinburghbug.bsky.socialš£ WANTED (Midlothian) Local activists/campaigners to push for bus route(s) through Auchendinny & other local villages which aren't served by Penicuik routes. Local residents are cut off if they can't manage the hills to Penicuik and the main road. DM/email EBUG with contact details.
@edinburghbug.bsky.social2015: all bus lanes in Edinburgh reduced to Monday-Friday peak hours only.
2026: bus lane fines have more than quadrupled.
How's it working out then @edinburghcouncil.bsky.social ?

@edinburghbug.bsky.socialA shame the Councils & ScotGov haven't invested as much in bus infrastructure. One might think, if you get a handy divi from one of your assets, you'd do what you can to boost its income. š¤·āāļø
@edinburghbug.bsky.socialYes. Unfortunately the study seems to be from 2005; but probably still the right ballpark.
