Misleading & Spurious: M&S falsely labels Scottish farmed salmon Scottish Sea Farms as 'responsibly sourced' - shame on RSPCA Assured & M&S for greenwashing the welfare nightmare that is Scottish salmon! @TavishScott Salmon Scotland

1/2 Met planners from Melbourne today. So many parallels with Glasgow. Melbourne has a dead city centre in the 70s, but traces its current success as global liveability capital back to a policy to increase central residential population. Lots of students, incentives...

Stobohope is a 1000 ha valley in the Peeblesshire hills, lying in a National Scenic Area. Rich in wildlife including black grouse and golden eagle. Scottish Forestry have awarded a £2m grant for 500 ha (5 km2) sitka spruce here without asking for an EIA. crowdfunder.co.uk/p/save-stobo-h…

BBC Scotland back in the day was still pro-Union but you had presenters you could trust to be impartial and give the SNP a fair crack. The late Derek Bateman, Isabel Fraser, Ken Macdonald and David Miller spring to mind. There's nobody now. Not one person. That's sad.

So looking forward to this one...

This beautiful doco on the late photographer Tish Murtha is currently on BBC iPlayer. It is an absolute must watch with great insights into how hard life was in the North of England under Thatcher.

For anybody wondering why so many CalMac Ferries are being cancelled today, this is the very unfun sail from Brodick to Troon that Molly and I are on right now- last ferry off the island and even the sturdy MV Alfred is being tossed about...

I just watched this wonderful documentary about Tish Murtha. She's an amazing female photographer, so I was pleased to see it on BBC4 the other day. Behold! My Demon Snapper badge! I got it for my small contribution to the crowdfunding campaign. #tishmurtha

This is well worth a watch. Congratulations to all involved.

Tom Honeyman, head of Glasgow Museums, pulled a blinder when he took Dali out on a boat on the Medto negotiate the sale of this painting. He'd stashed a bottle of malt in his bag, and, by the time they staggered ashore, he'd also secured the copyright to the image.

Good Friday?

Well, I've had better...
