Britain is basking in a mini heatwave right now – and Scotland’s capital city is getting fine weather too, with temperatures reaching highs of 22C on Tuesday, April 29. The good news is, the sun is set to shine for much of the week.
Never ones to turn our noses up at blue skies, plenty of locals (and tourists) headed to Portobello Beach, where the bars, cafes and kiosks were all doing a roaring trade.
