Firefighters who served alongside Barry Martin were part of his final journey today as a Turntable Ladder was used to carry his coffin.
Hundreds of people gathered in Edinburgh to pay their respects as the cortege made its way along the Royal Mile to St Giles’ Cathedral.

@philharrison192 I know this is about Micky Droy but here’s Stuart Taylor of Bristol Rovers. As a kid I remember the argument raging about who was the tallest. Proper footballer like Micky and sadly no longer with us. UTG.
My wifes on her own near Heathrow waiting for a tyre fitter to help her. She’s been given a fixed penalty notice for idling vehicle engine whilst stationary & not complying with public space protection order contrary to ASB crime & police act 2014 sec 67&68. Jobsworth arseholes!
@robertmdaws@ToteEndBarPod@Official_BRFC@SheffieldUnited I’ll add L to R Stu Taylor, Bobby Campbell (trainer I think he was called back then!), Lindsey Parsons, Frankie Prince, Wayne Jones (kneeling) and that’s the set. I don’t think Bruce arrived until 1973 but it’s a long time ago now and I might be wrong. #UTG
@TomBartleetLD@LeeAndersonMP_@Rob_Kimbell Trying to be clever is just showing your ignorance. Please educate yourself about what an MP does before you open you mouth. You’ve just made yourself look very foolish.
Yesterdays I visited a migrant camp in Calais. It is quite clear IMO that human rights charities are part of the problem, they are treating this camp as a 'waiting room' for the final journey to the UK. I did not see one woman or child. Just young men.
@TomBartleetLD@the_hendog@LeeAndersonMP_@Rob_Kimbell Well you’re going to be another massive credit to Parliament aren’t you? Haven’t even been elected and you can’t give a view appear to have little positive to say and, “if by a man’s words shall ye know him” - you are a Tosser!
