This is nuts. Private property (cars) parked on a public highway is preventing buses running on a major route. @lmacinnessnp @davidfkeySNP

A question for West Edinburgh 🚲 folk. Compiling list of chicanes that make it difficult for Active Travellers. Here's my starter for 13. What have I missed?

Are you going to see the @RollingStones next weekend @BTMurrayfield? Make sure Time Is On your Side and any oversized bag doesn't end up being a Beast of Burden by following this key advice.

Hopefully this will provide the impetus needed for #Bristol to take strong action on air quality: gov.uk/government/news/new-t… @BCC_Clean_Air @ClairCity @CleanAirBristol

New tool calculates NHS and social care costs of air pollution

A tool calculating the potential costs of air pollution will provide councils with further impetus to act and improve air quality.

Stockbridge used to have a bookshop called 'Stockbridge Bookshop' which closed when eBooks rose and Waterstones sold e-readers. The name is actually the biggest issue here. We believe in what we are doing and have faith that our community will choose to support us. ❤️

Despite James Daunt and @waterstones open promise that their copycat indies would only open in areas with no independent bookshops published in @guardian last year, this is exactly what is happening. And it's happening in our neighbourhood. bit.ly/2rDxglw

As a trustee I’m slightly biased but ... this is a fantastic opportunity to be part of something awesome! Help @DadsRockEdin to sustain their invaluable work with dads by making sure they have the funds they need to continue and thrive! #makingadifference teapawt.org/dadsrockedin/status/97…

Hi @CRSmithTweets - there’s a family in Arran living in a private let owned by a charity and rented at low cost as an alternative to homelessness. They desperately need new windows and their child is suffering respiratory problems - can you help?!? #actsofkindness
