Hello. Sorry should have introduced myself earlier.
What can I say about myself? Lived in Portobello for 20 odd (and some very odd ) years, near the Prom. I have kids aka the Clangers who range in age from 13 - 21
My mum was raised in Mellvile St ( now Bellfield St ) but I'm the only one from the family to remain in Edinburgh let alone Porty.
I remember the Power Station, open air pool- brrrr, tennis courts in Rosefield Park, salt water in the Baths, Mr Rudge's and Mrs Pelosi's shops in Bath St., the bakers round the corner, long sunny days on the beach.......................zzzzz
