I love coming back to Edinburgh. It's nice to spend real time here.

Edinburgh is my favourite city. We'll be doing a lot of children's theatre and galleries.

I find Edinburgh a stimulating place in which to live, with it being a city of contrasts, both architecturally and socially, and each district having a definite character.

Edinburgh is my adopted home. It's a place where I wanted to come and live, and I managed to arrange my life so it happened.

I've spent a lot of very happy times in Edinburgh as a result of playing virtually every festival since 1996. It's also a beautiful city in its own right, is walkable, within sight of the sea and mountains - and was too far north for the Luftwaffe to have done any damage, hence the spectacularly beautiful architecture.

I always feel that when I come to Edinburgh, in many ways I am coming home.

I'm a bit of a Scotophile. I have a house on the Black Isle, so I'm in Scotland quite a lot and think Edinburgh is just the most beautiful city.

Edinburgh used to be a haughty city.

Glasgow is less polite than Edinburgh but that's a good thing - they keep it very real.

Glasgow is a great city.
