I went on an adventure last Sunday. My alarm went off at 8am, the coffee machine turned on, and by half eight I was out the door, ready to enjoy a crisp, sunny, autumnal morning excursion before (virtual) church at half ten. Where was I going? Colinton.
Colinton Village is an historic conservation village — now surrounded by the suburbs of the city of Edinburgh. Taking the turn into Colinton, you might think you’ve travelled into the countryside, not expecting such a leafy setting after the surrounding city areas. But I wasn’t just going to Colinton Village on Sunday — I was on my way to Colinton Tunnel to see a mural.
