For the past few years there has been an artist creating small sculptures, and leaving them on top of the wooden groynes which run across Portobello Beach, left there to delight those who notice them, which I think is rather lovely.
Previously some of the pieces have included a TARDIS, a Dalek and a Borg Cube (see here - www.flickr.com/photos/woolamaloo_gazette/52261285658/ ). I haven't been down to Porty for a wee while and was delighted to see these new ones. I was also rather taken with the fact one of the sculptures is a replica of the channel marker which you can see on its tall pole in the water at the end of the groyne.
