Caramacs & Monkey Socks

Spitfire

I read online last night that the Spitfire with 'THANK U NHS' painted on the underside was going to be flying over a lot of Scottish hospitals today, so with sunny weather forecast, I set off for Craiglockhart Hill for a bit of plane spotting + exercise! I chose Craiglockhart because it's so close to the Royal Edinburgh hospital, which was first on the schedule, and I thought a hill would be a good place to get a decent view. In the end I didn't really get any great pictures as it didn't come as close as I thought it would!
On the way down I passed the new flats being built next to the old Craiglockhart hospital/Napier campus. Can't say I find them very attractive - but then I think that about a lot of new buildings these days. I used to live across the road and go up the hill and around the woods a lot, so it's weird to see how quickly things seem to change when you don't visit so often!
