Five things you need to know today

Full council meeting – Edinburgh Reporter competitions – Macmillan’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning – Our photos – Today at the Cameo
There is a full council meeting today at the City Chambers. The Edinburgh Reporter will be there live blogging and tweeting proceedings but it is thought this could be the quickest council meeting this year, as the agenda is not very long and the items not too contentious. We say this in spite of the fact that there is a tram project update on the agenda!  Even the Leader’s Report was one of the shortest this year by far.

We have two competitions running for you at the moment to win some of our Edinburgh Reporter Rewards. The first is to win sweeties from Candersons on Leith Walk which you can enter by clicking here and the second is to win two tickets to White Christmas at the Festival Theatre which you can find over here.

You can see some of our favourite photos on Blipfoto by clicking here. This allows you to put up only one photo a day – and yes you can do it after the event so we have a lot of days to go back and fill!

Also we publish some of our photos over here on Flickr. Do you have any favourite photos that you would like us and our readers to see? Then send it to us by using Twitter and we will publish a selection over the next few days!

You can at last go and see the film version of Irvine Welsh’s Filth and see for yourself what all the fuss is about! Do let us know what you think. If you would like to send us a review then use our Submit your Story feature.

The Cameo will be showing the film from tomorrow. Booking details here.
