#GlasgowHeritage matters! It’s depressing to think we’ve had to accept this blight on Sauchiehall Street for 7 years and rather than it being seen as a national priority to resolve ASAP and ensure the best outcome for #Glasgow a laissez-faire market driven approach is ok 🤯🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️!

So I went to see Spike Milligan's gravestone recently, to see for myself the "I told you I was ill" epitaph. Bright sunny day, slightly faded inscription, couldn't see it. Walked away somewhat disgruntled, another bloody urban myth I thought. 5 minutes later had a thought, had

#TilesOnTuesday: Spotted this beautiful Hyndland “Super-Wally” close while passing last week. It is probably by architect John Campbell McKellar who specialised in tenements designing no less than 640 of them. The bold choice of colours, stripes and patterns is most memorable 🥰!

I am impressed (and touched) by the how many are speaking out in defense of my work. Standing united against abuse is critical, and even more critical is to stop the genocide. TOGETHER WE CAN. middleeasteye.net/news/un-urged-…

In 1923, David Bomberg travelled to Palestine. Overcome by the light and colour found in the old city, compared to London and the aftermath of WW1, he wrote: ‘I was a poor boy from the East End and I’d never seen sunlight before.' 'Rock Façade, Petra, Afternoon,' is from 1924.

“President von der Leyen, we do not believe in you. You bow to Trump's bullying... & while a genocide rages in Gaza, & Israel rips up international law, your response is pathetic...” 🇪🇺MEP Aodhán O’Riordáin slams EU President Ursula von der Leyen.

Archway to the former Glasgow Royal Maternity Hospital, known simply as Rottenrow. It closed in 2001. Mostly everyone in Glasgow was born there. Look at the gradient! Those poor pregnant women having to navigate that slope. #glasgow #rottenrow #glasgowhistory #Glasgowheritage
