"On Saturday 23 April 2011 my wife and son surprised me with a visit to Gilmerton Cove as a birthday present and to say we were all blown away with this engineering feet and the possible uses over the years simply beggars belief. The young lady who performed the tour was not only excellent but unbelievably knowledgeable on history in general addressing all our questions in an absolutely captivating manner to the extent that our 16 year old son said that if all history teachers were as enthusiastic as her then more pupils would listen."
