Took it very Gingerly on Canal Towpath today - seemed to get worse nearer Edinburgh but by the sounds of @JdanielP’s report also worser at Wester Hailes

Heard of two cyclists who came off on black ice on the towpath in front of Boroughmuir .

@SRD yes that stretch was very clearly bad so I did ca’ canny.
In other news I have again become impatient with the 100s of cyclists who proceed on full beam. I have a knog blinder I put my hand over [mainly thanked by dog walkers for doing this] very occasional return photon reduction. From cyclists I used to pull people up about this in the olden days but now bright lights are so cheap any cat has them.
I shuffle the mainly Mrs Doyle bad word I say to relieve the monotony. Bloody blinder, fecker, ya big bollox, Lumentalist, etc.

I had to contend with yet another work truck being reversed into position by the temporary offices at Leamington Lift Bridge this morning, although the driver did a far better job at getting the truck close to the offices than the last one that I saw so there was a reasonable amount of space to pass it once it was parked.
The fences at the work site where the new school is being built at Wester Hailes are being gradually moved (officially) so that they encroach upon the towpath once again, which was unsettling when I realised this last night since the path now feels narrow.
