    That's everyone cleared from Murrayfield as of 11.45. Full trams for two solid hours both directions.10,000 passengers at least leaving.

    "Full trams for two solid hours"

    (Up to) two hours waiting for a tram?

    Revenue protection operating normally??

    I suspect the Misplaced Affection gig was the cause of two cars with in 90 seconds blocking my driveway last night!

    I came out for an evening ride along the tram route to Edinburgh Park and back to find a guy sleeping in the back seat of his car! I asked through his partly open window if he realised he was blocking a driveway and he got out (after putting shoes on) to moan that he's already been there for ages (as if that made it ok), and then swore that I was only wanting a bike out. I told him there was no need to swear and that I was only politely asking him to move. He continued to moan and drove completely away. So he wasn't that desperate for a parking spot after all.

    I rode round the block just in case he was bloody-minded enough to come back, and as I returned 90 seconds later I found a big white Mercedes now blocking my drive! Stopping alongside him, I asked if he realised he was blocking a driveway. "What driveway?" he asked! I pointed, "That one, with the two gates" He then said I was giving him attitude! :-o He then made the mistake of saying he gets the same problem (really?), so I said he should therefore understand my frustration, especially as he was the second person I'd had to move in a couple of minutes. He continued to be the one with bad attitude as he drove off, which I was happy to remind him of.

    What is most annoying is hat there was sufficient space on the road to stop without blocking anyone's access to their property. The selfishness of some motorists...
