Sun shines on Leith’s Sandy

LEITH FESTIVAL’S Mock Provost Sandy Campbell (pictured above) played a main role at the Gala Day parade. The “Provost” told The Edinburgh Reporter: “If only I was the real Provost and Leith was independent and had its own Provost back again. We would prevent Leith being like West Berlin and completely blocked in by all these tramworks. We used to have our own trams which were perfectly good until we joined Edinburgh in 1920. 102 years under the yoke of Edinburgh!”
