    You know you're in Edinburgh (or Leith) when ...

    At one o'clock the tourists jump and the locals check their watches.

    I know it's an old one so what's the new stuff, good or bad, in and around our great city that makes it what it is?

    Be as trivial or serious as you want to be.

    The tram is 1,779 days late making its debut on Leith Walk and beyond.

    Must be.

    Because you have tested all others?

    City of Edinburgh council issues it's 138th reminder to heart of Midlothian that it might be an idea to pay their business tax like everyone else in the city?

    You're called a "boy racer" if you do 25mph.

    You watch any film set in Edinburgh and can't understand why they would walk that way to get to where they were going.

    Rebus is particularly bad for that. You see them parked in the New Town supposedly heading for St Leonards and next you see them driving along Trinity.
