May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Check ’em out! Geez-o. Pair of neds. (To quote Frank Gallagher when I had a play about with him once. He shared a photo of himself posed with Jim and Charlie a few years back. I asked him who he was posing with in said photo – obviously knowing who they were. Frank’s response? “Couple…
I have been concentrating on getting my blog tidied up and streamlined. Yesterday the very hefty outlay for the blog was paid. It was also more expensive than I had anticipated so it really brought me down. As I said in a recent post, I am trying to migrate my site to somewhere else but…

Oh, such great timing. Literally on the eve of me having to fork out another £250+ in making sure this blog keeps on running….erm, thanks guys! Lol I went and looked at the info for the Hydro in the hope that I would at least be able to see a floor plan of it and…

And so I wrote about it some more…. You can read about the significance of this photo in relation to “Special View” on my University & Unicorns blog HERE – there is a tenuous link to Simple Minds with it all…but this blog didn’t feel the right place to actually share it. I’m hoping it…
