Never went near a boardgame when I was an Art student… we kept the night time economy afloat! 😉

The final line of this 😩

Exactly that. CCA made an absolute shitshow of themselves latterly but it brought no pleasure to see a once great art space fold. Scotland needs Glasgow’s energy and creativity and this all totally undermines that. Grim.

Hope everyone finds new homes but that block made that corner a great wee thriving cultural hub. The 4x rent hike is absolutely fckn outrageous.

Another absolute zinger

Celtic triumph despite Rangers being awarded FOUR penalties

£80… expensive business this Marxism 😳
