I like this pic even though I managed to get it out of focus somehow. There are two bridges that go from Queensferry on the edge of Edinburgh across the Forth River to the north side(where the bird flu is...)This bridge was a 'masterpiece of engineering' in Victorian times. I think around 9 people died making it. One last fact...one of Alfred Hitchcock's earliest films had a scene where someone got out of a train and did fancy stunts while it was crossing this bridge. We walked 10 miles west of here a couple of weekends ago.
