Good Will Hunting sold the 90s dream perfectly:

follow your potential, escape your hometown, leave your friends behind, call it healing.

Thirty years later everyone wonders why nobody knows their neighbours or has kids.

Neoliberalism with a therapy scene.

3 weeks after the storm and The Kelvin Walkway and canal towpath are both still blocked by fallen trees. Active travel routes are not a priority - anyone who claims they are is delusional or lying.

@ccityplanner12 Where is this?

[Will @flittingpie]

@PastGlasgow How could this happen so soon after a lengthy refurbishment? In an affluent part of the South Side, no less…

@mikeirons12 @deeplyclassical Hang on, what is GM 11??

@SubtleBeats @RaymondDuck6 @rcolvile You’re wasting your time, arguing with a bot.

@PaulJSweeney @Zaphod2042 @is_glasgow @MurphyNiallGLA @LostGlasgow @PastGlasgow Does that curve not allow for a potential connection to the Argyle Line as part of a future Clyde Metro. Though, with the latest development plans for King Street car park this would be fairly difficult.

@PaulJSweeney @PJFerguson18 While the loss of jobs and industrial heritage is sad, it is a very large site. Would it be a viable residential area in future (riverside amenity, etc), or does proximity of BAE and other industrial units make this awkward?

@honeydewgrl @paulisci Alternatively, could be regarded as evidence that we’ve been on a century-long decline in clothing standards.

@CoHSATOxon @ChrisofBelper @baoigheallain The ones here in Glasgow seem to be ignored on a regular basis, unfortunately. Even with the prospect of a £50 fine.

@HoarseFace “Don’t say Bigcock, don’t say Bigcock, don’t say Bigcock…”

[Will @flittingpie]

@HoarseFace Yes

@AuDebutGateau @archi_tradition I mean, if your main impression of Glasgow is the Red Road flats (demolished a decade ago), I’m not surprised…

@Coppice83 @Official_NCFC @MSVDuisburg @FootyScran Lecker!

@davecraig @elisjames Isn’t it just “currently no.2 globally, but we want/expect to get to no.1 globally”? That’s how I interpreted it.

@PastGlasgow @is_glasgow @PaulJSweeney Fair point.

[Will @flittingpie]

@is_glasgow @PastGlasgow @PaulJSweeney All that to end up as a chain coffee shop.

@hamish_ashcroft @JSpagboli The East Mids, Tyneside and South Yorkshire would like a word !

[Will @flittingpie]

@ScottishOpera Especially happy to see a couple of operettas in the mix.

[Will @flittingpie]

@ScottishOpera Fantastic programme! Some real gems to look forward to.
