Crossing point

With a major milestone being reached with the first sections of the new Forth Bridge away to be laid in place, did we really need to yet again see Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon’s phizog (your report, 10 December)?

Our Nicola is often seen doing stunts on building sites. At least this time she seemed to be properly attired in safety wear. It would have been far more interesting to see the bridge progress, I feel.
