Autumn in Rosebank Cemetery

Rosebank Cemetery was opened in 1846 by the Edinburgh and Leith Cemetery Company. The cemetery includes a mass grave, marked by a Celtic cross, of 215 men of the Royal Scots who came from Edinburgh and Leith and who were killed in the Gretna Rail Disaster of 1915. The cemetery also contains the memorials of many Leith ship-owners and merchants, and of two servants of Queen Victoria. There is also a small Moslem section.

It’s that blocked drain in Dock Place again. But it looks prettier drowned in brightly-coloured leaves.

My result for The Perception Personality Image Test…

I won’t make a habit of posting this kind of thing – it’s just a quiz! but I was pleased/amused by this result.

NBPC – The Daydreamer

Nature, Background, Big Picture, and Color

You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on the hidden treasures of life (the background) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the colors around you. Because of the value you place on nature, you tend to find comfort in more subdued settings and find energy in solitude. You like to ponder ideas and imagine the many possibilities of your life without worrying about the details or specifics. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You are a down-to-earth person who enjoys going with the flow.

Sorry for the lateness! It has been a terrible day.

This weekend the clocks go back: we’re all cheated of an hour of sleep. To celebrate this weird and awful thing, let me post a picture of autumn in springtime.
