You nearly got a pic of me falling from that window ledge ! And I agree ,no need for a press card, you are entitled to be where you where stood.

I don't want to join either organisation for their membership benefits, it would only be to get the press card.

Nice set by the way! Hang on, isn't the fact that Granton still has its Christmas lights up a bigger story?
