Off to visit another new football ground today, @glencairnfc.bsky.social, which will be my 128th in Scotland. Here's some photos of visits I've made in the last week. Can you identify all four grounds though?

An astonishing game of football last night at @penicuikath.bsky.social v Whitburn Juniors in East of Scotland League Premier Division

A penalty save & 2 goals for the home team then 3 goals by Whitburn to take the lead with 20 minutes left & then 3 more goals for Penicuik.

Final score 5-3!

The Ground Hop that never was. Irvine Meadow XI v West Calder was postponed 45 mins before kick-off tonight, long after I'd left home.

As part of my lecture for our first year undergraduate students on housing policy today, I'll be discussing my work on the Australian Housing Conditions Dataset which reveals the social gradient in exposure to unintentional injuries and social harm.

Lochee Harp v Lochee United last night in Dundee.

A bitterly cold night for my 114th match of the calendar year.

A convincing 0-4 win for United and my first taste of a Dundee Peabuster. Would recommend.

My first post here. I stepped in at short notice today to write & deliver a lecture on #Squalor one of the five giants in the #BeveridgeReport. There is little mention of #housing in the report but he does have some sensible things to say about #PlanningforHousing in the Pillars of Security"
