@EIBWPodcast @AaronJStokes @ADMusgrove Mowbray sacked. Someone over at the Stadium of Light must have been listening to the Monday Show and thought Aaron might be on to something!

@AaronJStokes Mind boggling that Antony Gordon isn't getting a call. Also, that Nick Pope isn't, given form and that he's got experience at this level.

Southgate's sticking with the same lads regardless - disrespectful to many talented English players not getting a look in.

@edinhelp Thanks Gayle much appreciated.

@edinhelp Hi, I reported an overflowing bin the other day. It has been marked as resolved but it isn't. The bin is facing the wrong way and the lid is stiff, so it doesn't appear to empty into the truck. Can you re-open the case please and send someone.

We have published a PAS guide to Local Place Plans. As the Scottish Government works to bring forward guidance to implement Local Place Plans, we have put together a guide to share how we think they could work in the meantime:

We KNOW that MOBILITY IN CITIES IS ABOUT SPACE, & we’ve seen lots of these great images from cities around the world seeking to reinforce the point. This one might be my fav, from #Santiago, because it ALSO shows the inequality/inefficiency of having buses run in mixed traffic.

Apologies for commercialising your #openspace. West Princes St Gardens Edinburgh. The minimum disruption seems to cover about half of the gardens. @thecockburn

[David Wood @PAS_DavidW]

Local Place Plans being written into the new planning act is a significant change to the planning system Scotland has had since 1947. Lots of details & guidacne still to follow but here are @PAS_tweet thoughts so far (based on numerous projects we have led pre-dating the act.
