It's been suggested that I change my pin tweet to something more current. Until I think of what that is, here's something less current.

Further to previous money announced for the parks, there's a survey for users of Govanhill Park & Maxwell Square (and some parks that aren't wardjacent) about what sort of things they'd like to see in the revamp.
If you want to contribute do so here:

Great meeting of Southside Central Area Partnership. Very pleased that we agreed to provide funding through the Neighbourhood Infrastructure Fund for a new heating system for the Dixon Community and to support a community led plan to re-open Langside Halls.
@Jolloy23@MhairiHunter The Recs are actually in Langside ward so I'm not sure of the specifics but big events like Trsnsmt have an "environmental levy" included in the ticket price to cover the cost of clean up. @SusaninLangside and @PaulforLangside might know more about this event.
@alisonthewliss@MhairiHunter Yes I could have worded that better it was you wanting rhubarb I remembered and my own not seeing a treacle scone since the pantry on Byres Road closed down.
@MhairiHunter It's becoming harder to get a cool original plain vanilla New York style cheesecake, everybody wants to give me salted caramels or key limes or such. @alisonthewliss was recently bemoaning the availability of rhubarb tarts and treacle scones are all but a thing of the past.
@MhairiHunter I often buy a wee sourdough when I'm bothering with bread because I know I'll use the whole thing and if I buy a normal loaf I'll end up throwing half away and being told by well meaning sorts that I could have frozen it. I would say there's more of an issue with the desserts
If you've got a bike, want someone to give it a once over free of charge while you have a potter about town, there's folk doing that at the Citz tomorrow.
Had a chance to sub on to CAC today and have approved ยฃ482k for improvements around Carlton Place and the South Portland Street Suspension Bridge. North Laurieston is the Southside's front door and it's great to see further investment in the area coming in the next twelve months.
