Spent much of the day in conversation with heritage groups and planners talking about ideas for Princes Street. This iconic Edinburgh Street, home not just of shopping but the Gardens, Hogmanay and much more needs a radical face lift but that will take vision, leadership and political will. It also needs real and deep consultation with all of Edinburgh. I and my colleagues have begun to formulate some ideas about what we think might be possible which we will expand on soon and you, lovely readers, will be the first to know, I promise!

The idea of Edinburgh is a combination of place, soul and symbolic leadership of a nation
