A close-up of Simon holding the lapel of the dark blue overcoat that he's wearing, so that the viewer can see the badge he's wearing. It's pink and has on it the word "GLASGOW" in bold black letters. Underneath, in smaller white letters that require the viewer to make an effort to read them, are the words "BISEXUAL CAPITAL OF THE UNIVERSE"

on the topic of car violence, I can't help wondering if the aggy mood of the country isn't exacerbated by a) half of cars being TOO BIG and b) headlights being TOO BRIGHT so everyone on the road constantly feels threatened or hassled

A group of children participating in a festive procession, the illustration features six children dressed in historical or old-fashioned clothing: 
A child on the left carries a sprig of mistletoe or a similar green plant.
A taller child carries a large Yule log over a shoulder.
Another child holds a bundle of holly with red berries.
A child in a red hooded cloak leads the group, holding a lantern aloft on a pole.
Two children on the right carry bundles of firewood or kindling.
The scene is set against a dark blue background with some greenery visible. Text at the bottom of the image reads, "Sing heigh ho! unto the green holly."

Glaswegians, did you know the library has a decent app (better than the website) where you can request books from any city library be sent to your local one for pickup? There's also a barcode scanner which lets you check in the bookshop if they have the book in the libraries. Really useful!
