Portobello Beach

[footnotes]

Watch out for the guy who lets his husky-type dog crap on the beach. 

He pretends not to see it, using his smart phone.  He's smallish, quite broad, with dark hair.  Seen today around #3, just after midday, wearing long shorts.

Rank.

Maybe it would be good to pinch his phone and drop it in the merde as a lesson.

Someone once told me that Portobello beach has one of the highest proportions of sex offenders anywhere in Scotland.

Ain't no surf in Portobello.

Once worked on a building site just next to it. Every Friday the labourers would dig a hole in the sand and bury the contents of the chemical toilet! If your kids ever find blue sand whilst digging, you’ll be able to tell them what it is.

Wasn’t Caroline Hogg snatched from there?

I was about the same age at the time and remember thinking that it was some kind of Europe type beach from the TV as I had never been to a beach.

Never been to Portobello beach in my puff.

How does it compare to Leven, St Andrews, Lunan Bay or the Ferry?

There used to be a Wimpy in the amusement arcade. 

When ah were a lad Porty pool was salt water

It also had a pier designed by the same guy that built the Tay Bridge that fell down

I suppose, while disgusting, the high tide will eventually wash the dogs' eggs away. There are plenty of gits who let their dugs crap on public football pitches without a care in the world.
