Yes, but if there's a group of us I'm sure we could get the ones we don;t have on the forum photogrpahed in time!
If there's five or more of us we'd get it covered in no time at all. |

And that's assuming they are all visible enough to photograph - i think the last time we were there alot of the memorials were in area's that had restricted access due to renovations/repairs etc. Maybe not an issue as it was a wee while ago now.

Last time I was there the renovations were pretty much finished. I almost asked if I could sneak through the barriers to take pictures. |

I was just there in October and there were still some renovations, but most of the memorials were accessible. They charged a pound to take photos and I had to wear a tag on my shirt. (I didn't see any SGPPD* folks lurking about though!)

If I can manage to get the time off work and come along I don't think I'd be able to take the train but I'd be happy to give a lift to anyone en route. I'd be driving from Glasgow along the M8 to Edinburgh and could easily make detours no problem, can carry three passengers in comfort, four at a push.
Passengers would owe me an orange juice in the pub
