A foggy lunchtime walk
9th September 2014

About this memory
I used to work near here and would walk all around the Chambers Street area on my lunch break. This day was very foggy and it made some things stand out more than they usually did. I’m not sure, but I think this statue was moved when the changes were made to the Museum of Scotland’s entry. A friend told me that the statue in the background was moved to this rooftop from a school somewhere else in town. It’s a man with a hammer.
