	::: Edinburgh Skate Park :::
		The use of such phrases as 'our park,' denials of 'nimbyism' and even requests that a new planning application be submitted for a brown-field site in the Granton Waterfront development or an ‘urban site’ are far from helpful.
		We would ask you if you are an Edinburgh resident to assist with this by continuing to write with your support to your local councillor, the local press and MSP’s.
		The fact is that Inverleith Park, has, from day one, been a favoured option for this facility albeit described as 'competition standard' whatever that means.

		The place has an old fashioned air; and the red-tiled, two storey houses with outside stairs and jutting gables, the strings of bladders, and the big boats, hauled up on the shore or rocking in the harbour, all give it a picturesque look, which is lacking in modern watering-places.
		The Newhaven Heritage Museum tells the story of the village and its people through reconstructed sets of fishwives and fishermen, historic objects and photographs, and first-hand accounts of people's lives.

	Scotland on Sunday - Scotland - £10m plan for high-speed ferry over the Forth
		A passenger ferry service between Burntisland and Granton in the early 1990s failed because of lack of demand, no proper terminal and poor links into the centre of Edinburgh.
