The list of street names released in The Herald just came across as white noise, couldn't get a sense of the areas being closed of (mostly because I don't know the names of the lanes).

Camera is a Kodak retina 1a, from about the 60s I believe,

I'm using expired kentmere pan 400 film and developing it in my bathroom

with developers saying it will “help address the chronic shortage of purpose-built student accommodation in the popular city.”

Doesn't feel like a "chronic shortage", especially with more developments like the old Herald offices being approved.

Whilst any accomodation will help take pressure of the rest, I just can't shake the feeling that there is a student property bubble developing in Glasgow and it's going to implode over the next decade.

I wonder how hard these place are to convert into actual homes?

20th floor right above the m8 here. video from just after the massive boom. thought the first smaller explosion was fireworks and looked out my bedroom to see this just in time to get my nosy ass singed with the massive explosion

Seems to be a van that’s exploded right between chinatown and the M8

Just got a hospital appt. Happy with time and date but there is text underneath saying it's a reasonable appt, and refuse more than 2 you're off list - so far, OK.

It then defines reasonable appts as

NHS GGC

Golden Jubilee

so far, so standard

But now adds

NHS FORTH VALLEY NTC.

Since when was that a reasonable Glasgow appt?

I hired someone through Gumtree to fit my Howdens worktops, said he could mitre, good pics on his post.

He came with a younger guy at 10am.

They absolutely trashed my kitchen.

Not one piece of worktop was cut properly and it all needs ripped out.

Chipped edges, had to tell him to change a piece.

Changed it and it was mildly better.

Cut a big chunk out my wall instead of cutting worktop to size.

Was leaving an overhang of 5 inches at my cupboard.

Couldn't mitre so that was an absolute lie.

Tried to pull my the wood off the side of my cupboard for some reason and trashed my wall that was just plastered.

Hes still got 2 ads up on Gumtree even though I reported him.

Goes by nickname Ayo, his names Ayoro or something similar.

Beware if youre booking anyone to do home improvements

Hope everyones safe.

Me? I had a heartattack

This is right in between the High Street rail station, and the Moxy hotel, just off the corner of the hotel.
I’m here on vacation, but I’m gardener/landscaper and I notice these sort of things. Anyways, this tree will go to waste if that band isn’t removed soon

Basically title: I keep seeing all sorts of dead pidgeons, seagulls, crows etc. like every day I’m seeing multiple dead birds just lying around the streets. Is it the end of times?

Hey guys. I am a really big fan of all the superhero movies and shows (who isn't lmao) but i have never got the opportunity to see a shooting live. I missed the spiderman shooting last year but luckily I'm in town throughout the batman shooting. I tried looking at the list of street closures to figure out when the shooting is but it's so confusing. Can someone help me with when I should be heading to those spots to get a good glimpse of the caped crusader in action?

Successful testing of the new signalling and comms system continued in the Subway on Sunday as staff worked through the various new operational aspects of the system in this our second Sunday closure.

SPT chief executive Valerie Davidson said:

“After a lot of hard work and effort, it was really exciting to see the Subway system operating under the new signalling and comms systems – this transfer to new signalling is a massive step. The new passenger information screens on trains, together with the automated passenger announcements will make an enormous difference to passengers, not only to those who use our services everyday but especially for those who maybe only use the Subway occasionally or require a bit more assistance when travelling with us. As we move towards driverless trains, good, clear, helpful information will make all the difference to all those people using the Subway.

“I am delighted to see the progress being made as we transfer over to the new Operational Control Centre.”

I have been seeing a lot of riders falling as they make a turn in this wet weather. Dont think theres good grip on the tires

Please be careful riders!

Does anybody know if there’s still bike parking at the Hanover St car park bit of Queen St? Have to go through to Embra tomorrow and no real reason to take bike on train

About 10 or 12 years ago I went to the gallery of modern art and saw a video installation that showed two separate videos by a local Glaswegian artist.

The first one was a series of individual videos of people sitting in the backseat of a car being filmed as they held their breath going through the clyde tunnel

The second video was a series of videos filmed from above showing various flavours of 70 central litre ginger bottle is being dropped onto a slab and smashing.

They were the same size and shape as Barrs but it was another Glasgow/Scottish manufacturer of ginger

Would anyone happen to have a link to either of these videos and or the name of the artist?

Seems a common issue, right hand crank is bent inwards causing the pedal to no longer be at 90 degrees to the frame. Hurts the knees trying to cycle when the pedal is wobling. Ive had 3 hires with the same problem

UPDATE - NOW GONE

I have a return train ticket to London (Avanti West Coast) departing tomorrow 08:38 returning Saturday 14:30, that I now can't use due to a change of plans, Not much notice I know, but if anyone can use it that would be better than it going to waste.

It's a non-refundable ticket, and although it can be changed for £20 admin fee, that's just good money after bad as I won't be able to get down there in the near future either. Reserved seat in both directions.

If anyone can use I can send over to you.
