Going down Easter Road on a bus last night, I happened to look out of the window of the upper deck. Scrawled in what I can only describe as white paint, across the first floor window of the flat opposite were the following words:
“70% of stabbings happen on buses. Ha ha ha.”
Whether this fascinating statistic relates only to stabbings on Easter Road, the city in general or the world, heaven only knows. If this figure is reflective of the number of stabbings on Easter Road then I am eager that the tram work be finished as soon as possible and the diversion down Easter Road removed.
Saying that, the percentage of stabbings on buses on Leith Walk could be higher. It wouldn’t surprise me.
