October Round Up

Can you believe it's time for another round-up post again? From the looks of things October has been another busy month for all the Edinburgh bloggers. We had 96 new posts shared on our Facebook group plus much more via Twitter. As you can imagine narrowing them down to only 10 for this post isn't an easy task. If you have time make sure you scroll through all the posts shared on Facebook as there are some real gems on there.
