Lost property - with a view


On the railings of Princes Street Gardens, looking out over the Mound and the castle, an impromptu lost property 'office' has grown up. I don't know who puts the lost gloves there - perhaps the street cleaners - but there's a whole stretch of railings devoted to reuniting cold hands with their missing protection.

Lots of gloves, and yesterday one tiny, forlorn sock:

  1. That´s a nice warm touch to the fence.

    btw. Why there is always so much spiky fences in England? They look so dangerous.

  2. Spiky fences? because we're big on privacy and 'keep out'. I think we used to impale bits of people on them. At least now it's only gloves and socks.

  3. If I had been a visitor there, I just may have needed to make a trip to that office. I'm good at misplacing things. What cool pics!
