Nice, a New Church. Is this a problem for anyone?
Are you part of the Community and this is why you are announcing it?
No? Ok, I thought so.

I like the inversion of the cliche of church into bingo hall, though with cinema seats, screens and.. who uses 'groovy' these days? Should Edinburghers be concerned at the new wave blockbuster sermons soon to be coming out of Leith?

I thought just the same thing, Babaganate. They'll be turning riverside apartments back into industrial mills next!
So is Scotland seeing a resurgence of Christianity? Or is it just this one bingo hall/church?

Isn't it usually Churches getting closed into Bingo Halls? Something like that...

If there's one thing the people of Leith could use, it's a Church: it's only a 20 minute walk from Princes Street, but it's like a different world...
