Perhaps my favourite window display from tonight's wander around Strathbungo in Glasgow.
Well done to the dozens of households who made it such a magnificent tour.

Thank-you.
We needed some new music for Christmas Day!
My playlist was getting tired.
Sending you the very best wishes of the season.
And keep up the good work in 2026!
Lewis Taylor! Underrated voice...
Gosh! 24yrs ago.
I remember it well.
Congratulations!

Great pic. Haunting...
Why must it be autumn?

I saw that tour (my fourth time seeing Bowie) and was lucky enough to write about it for The Herald.

I concur. Not entirely sure my wife would agree.
I'm proud/ashamed to say that I bought one during lockdown and learned to play Norwegian Wood.
It has yet to have its public première. Open to offers...
Oh, God. You've just transported me back to Busby Primary c.1974.
Rehearsing for our annual school concert.
Mrs Livingston, with her too many rings, clanking away on the piano, shouting instructions above a cacophony of descants played by kids who had no idea what the hell was going on.
Beyond excited to reveal our first book of 2026. The psychological thriller, Original Sins, by award-winning writer, actor and playwright @flamingredhead.bsky.social
Sleep easy...
Back home. It's raining outside. I sit with my face pressed against the window. Soon there will be Glen Michael's Cavalcade.
I steal one of my mum's cigs and look forward to the future.
Sunday afternoons for me in the mid-70s:
Church boring. The auld wimmin the cafe after service with their milky coffee and fags. Too many questions. What do I want? To be 10yrs older and escape suburbia. I can't tell them that.
My childhood recollection of travelling in from the southside was that the buses terminated on the quay by the Carrick. We we lived by Clarkston and served by Western and Central buses.
Terrific talk, Lucy. Really enjoyed it - informative and light-hearted. Perfect Tuesday evening!
This a great story and I know there was similar (or the same?). Initiative in Scotland. My understanding is that much of the collections thankfully were handed over to local authority galleries.
There was a good exhibition of the Argyll and Bute collection at Dunoon Burgh Hall about 7yrs ago.
You could use the generic term of Laldi. It stems from an imaginary idea that if the two brothers who fell out were Glaswegian but had a reconciliation.
Belated photo of the ferry view this afternoon. Very different. One of the joys of the Clyde...
