The streets of Edinburgh were lined by large crowds yesterday as thousands turned out for the city’s Pride march.
The Capital has played host to Pride since 1994, growing from a small affair to a massive celebration.
Things got started at the Scottish Parliament before the parade headed up through the Old Town and ended at the Pride village at Edinburgh University Students’ Association.
