Today is polling day, as if you have not noticed.

Tonight from 10pm we will be live blogging the Edinburgh results as and when they are announced from the count at Ingliston.

If you would like your tweets included in our liveblog then please send us a tweet to tell us!

And the photo below is the very large Highland Hall at Ingliston which will become the focus of all political punditry tonight when chief executive of The City of Edinburgh Council and Chief Returning Officer, Sue Bruce, announces the results.

EIFF has announced its initial line up for the 65th Film Festival, and The Guardian gives you the lowdown here.

Councillor Cameron Rose explains the background behind the appeal to preserve the 125 year-old Jawbone Arch on the Meadows which starts on Friday.

Get A Low Carbon Lift To The Polling Booth

Suitably Despairing tells us about the Scottish Greens who will give potential voters a lift today – literally. A lift in a Toyota Prius to the polling station. So if you need a lift then have a look at the blog post here.

Dead by Dawn gets going tonight at The Filmhouse. Four whole days (or nights) of horror movies….. Too much for us, but this may be your cup of hemlock…. This is what the Filmhouse has to say about it:-


Four days of utter horror indulgence with the usual stunning programme of previews and glorious indie discoveries, complemented by a superb selection of classics, more short film programmes than you can shake a splintered bone at, special guests, endless give-aways, goodies, a late bar every night and much more!

An interview with the organiser Adele Hartley can be found here.
