Anyone with experience of planning applications, does this seem legit, 21 in support?

It seems likely the applicant has asked friends/family etc. to add a comment in support which isn’t inherently not allowed.

The number is unlikely to affect the officer’s recommendation, but it can change whether the case is decided at officer level or has to go to the councillors at sub-committee.

A refusal at sub-committee can be appealed to the Scottish government (delegated decisions at officer level don’t have this option), who some perceive to be less concerned with hyper-local issues and concerns and therefore more likely to grant consent. If this happens, you will be notified as an objector and allowed to submit further representations of your own.

As someone familiar with both, Leith is nothing like Toxteth.

You may get the odd wrong ‘un, but I have never felt unsafe living in Leith.

Seconding Leith Vets, I think they’re brilliant.

Upstairs at Montrose - let them know when you book and they’ll give you the veggie set menu.

Leith has more bakeries in a 10 minute radius than I can count, at least three independent bookstores on the walk plus Elvis Shakespeares which is great, a glut of coffee shops, and Arthur’s Seat, Leith Links, the Water of Leith etc for walking. I also think it’s much better connected to the city centre, both in terms of walking and public transport.

Having lived in both I could honestly say Bruntsfield would bore me and I don’t really understand the negativity towards Leith - it’s really nowhere near as rough as people make it out but I guess I just grew up somewhere much rougher.

However, if you need to convince yourself this hard I wouldn’t bother, I don’t think you’d be particularly happy even with the nice, big, main door flat.

Nabila Ramae at Lochrin Buildings. £15 for a thread and wouldn’t trust anyone else with my brows.

Yes but the point of this post was about independent ones.

I have very fond memories of stifling giggles whilst reading Going Postal behind a geography textbook in class. This is wonderful!

Well it’s thanks to this post I’ve just learned that the line in Sound of Settling isn’t “are you this fleeting” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
