    Got this from a colleague - very odd...

    Debris Deliberately Placed on Cycle Path

    Along the wide cycle path coming from the Airport to RBS, next to the golf course, there was a woman placing debris on the path. She was taking this from the bush and creating barriers along the path. I saw her breaking branches from the trees and then putting them on the path.

    I stopped and asked what she was doing and she was quite honest in saying: “I am making obstacles for cyclist because I have to walk on shale.” I’m not sure what the shale bit was but she was very strange. I cleared away what I came across but she was still on a mission as I walked away.

    I was walking this morning and passed my many cyclists, polite and careful they all were. I am not sure what could have set her off.

    Be careful if you see someone reaching into the bush as you pass by...

    Anyone else seen anything similar to this...

    The ghost of an old Gogarburn Hospital resident?

    I passed there this morning and didn't see anything unusual. What time was this at?

    @dg145 - I got the note yesterday so I'm guessing yesterday morning.
