Perhaps in Currie there wasn't occasionally not-fireworks.</p> <p>There may also have been some verbal fireworks at the Domino's delivery driver who was texting whilst driving. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19252#post-295044 Mon, 05 Nov 2018 21:35:59 +0000 gembo 295044@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@frenchy.

They would have made things even worse a little later.</p> <p>I left work 5.20. Aiming to avoid the pyrotechnics. Roads quiet in town centre so bashed on ip road. Arrived Currie around six Mostly dark save for the flames from the burger van. Excitement pending </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19252#post-295039 Mon, 05 Nov 2018 20:41:34 +0000 unhurt 295039@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@sheeptoucher reports that the Currie fireworks might have been a factor. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19252#post-295034 Mon, 05 Nov 2018 20:15:41 +0000 gembo 295034@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The first bit if it from slateford to kingsknowe caused by eastbound carriageway being resurfaced. But the next and massively longer delay caused by tiny hole in Juni green. Chaos even extended beyond the hole as traffic going east filled half the carriageway making other 4x4 and bused unable to pass. </p> <p>Not a problem for the cyclists but all the single occupancy vehicles are still out there and I have been home since the back of six. </p> <p>Quick commute given easterly wind but much of it filtering up inside a row of vehicles </p>
