Hibernian Women's winger Tegan Bowie was “buzzing” after Sunday's 3-2 victory over city rivals Hearts at Oriam in the Sky Sports Cup quarter-final. Her solo finish, following Georgia Timms' opener and Kathleen McGovern's equaliser, paved the way for the excellent away win. Hibs were dominant but Hearts provided a nervy end for the Hibs fans in attendance as Bayley Hutchison grabbed a late goal to bring Hearts back into the match....

A Scottish public relations agency has strengthened its senior team with the appointment of two communications professionals from a fellow Edinburgh agency. Two PR professionals, Annie Diamond and Roddy Scott, join Holyrood PR following a record year of growth, as the firm deepens its focus on storytelling that connects people in an age increasingly shaped by AI. Both bring decades of experience across journalism, higher education, events and agency leadership - skills that align perfectly with Holyrood PR’s belief that technology should enhance, not replace, the human touch in communication....

The council's £1.3 billion plans for Granton Waterfront will take another step forward in the next few weeks. Councillors will be presented with the financial details they need to know at a meeting next week, but the project will have to be signed off by all councillors when they meet next month.

Plans to demolish a former scout hut and replace it with two new three bedroom homes on the edge of a rural hamlet have been rejected by Midlothian planners. Nearly 50 objections to the plans at Borthwick, near Gorebridge, were lodged with claims it would have a negative impact on the conservation area and A-listed Borthwick Castle, overlooking it. And concerns were raised about its effect on the neighbouring field which is still used to host scout camps....

Local police have welcomed the extra training that will give front-line officers the skills to carry out roadside drug driving tests. At the August meeting of Bathgate’s local area committee Labour councillor Harry Cartmill called for vigorous testing of drivers after complaining about smelling cannabis as he cycled past cars. He returned to the issue at the latest meeting of the committee this week, pointing out that while he was cycling less than in the summer, he still smelled the drug wafting from cars....

An “absolutely phenomenal” army of volunteers is providing a range of social and practical services across northern Livingston. But in the age of social media, many people who would benefit the most are missing out because there’s not enough information available offline. Now council regeneration officers are looking at ways of promoting the dozens of clubs and activities that are available through venues such as Carmondean Library....
