HT, the main street is Princes Street, one "s" and the apostrophe omitted ( as it usually is on street name signs). No street called after the female version singular. ( I did say it was pedantic).

Yes I know, it's just how it's said I think, I was always of the illusion it was princess (wrongly)

For the buggy drivers - (this may also apply to other parkruns but I know we do it at Porty - so apologies if you know this already) there are buggy catchers (funnel managers) just as you go through the funnel to allow you to go through and collect your token without having to negotiate the funnel with buggy - buggies and occupants are reunited with drivers at token collection

I am staying in the kings manor and will be driving up to close to the pub so can pick up premier inn folks on my way. Got 3 spaces at least in car.

idle_wilder and I have sussed out the parkrun route though it will probably look a lot different in daylight!

you ran arond the park in the dark? I'm glad you didn't end up in the pond. And avoided the agressive swans

About This Thread

Maintained by katypie
Sat 7th Jan, Portobello parkrun, then into town for lunch / drinks, and possibly continuing on into evening and dinner.

10:15-12:00 Planet cafe for More tea, vicar? and Cake! www.planetcafeedin.co.uk
12:30-? Kilderkin for drinks, lunch, XC watching

Then folks who are heading off for early evening trains can walk to Waverley (it's uphill but about 10 minutes).
