Edinburgh Ex Police Box Book Festival
Did you know that the Newhaven police box will be part of the Edinburgh Ex Police Box Book Festival on 23 & 24 April? There are lots more police boxes involved, all across Edinburgh. More info is on http://www.edinburghexpoliceboxes.co.uk/.
Flowering Fruit Trees
We plant some plum and cherry trees in 2014 and we’re hoping for our first crop this year.

Spotted from Starbank park this morning!
Sunshine, Warmth and Weeding
The park is looking good after a great turn-out and a load of work done in the sunshine. We, of course, managed rest and recreation after all the hard work.
Fabulous Day at the Park
Glorious sunshine, warmth and spectacular views were the order of the day today. The Ochils and beyond were very clear over Granton Harbour.
Wednesday Gardening, 20 April, 10-11.30
There’s a gardening session this week on Wednesday, 10-11.30. There is, as always in the spring, lots to do and the Met Office forecast is sunny and warm. OK, “sunny and not cold” might be more accurate! Please come along for the gardening, coffee and chat, not to mention the glorious show of spring flowers.
Spring in the park
Today’s spring flowers in glorious colour!
Bird and bat boxes nearly ready
We nearly there with the bird and bat boxes. It’s all part of our nature trail! A substantial batch was delivered to the park yesterday. Special thanks to Sinclair, Tom, Roy and Sandy for their special help, to Forth Youth Theatre for the use of their workshop facilities and to Action Earth for funding the construction of these boxes.
