Sending you the very best wishes of the season.
And keep up the good work in 2026!

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.

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.

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.

Gosh! I remember seeing them in a small venue on my first ever trip to Paris in 1985. I bought the single afterwards. Still have it!
