Thankyou @ScottishSun for helping highlight the dangers outside our school. We need @SouthLanCouncil & @PoliceScotland to do the right thing and make sure our kids can get to classes safely.

In Cambuslang, South Lanarkshire, our kids can’t get to school safely. We are pleading with @SouthLanCouncil & @PoliceScotland to take some action before a child is seriously hurt or killed here. @mgshanks @FionaHyslop

@SouthLanCouncil Hi @SouthLanCouncil it’s early in the new financial year now and it’s not sorted. Several of these lights have failed. When will they be fixed please? #childsafety

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

Our school safety lights outside West Coats Primary, Cambuslang. Broken for six months now, despite so many emails, calls & complaints. @SouthLanCouncil can you let us know what’s gone wrong?

@Minnie_Mo_ Hi Minnie, James here from BBC news, wondered if we might be able to chat to you about the ferries. I’m on [email protected] if you’re able to msg.

A high number of protests, a low number of arrests, cops handing out chocolate while global politicians guzzle Irn Bru, then a weird battle between projectionists for control of the Armadillo. Something quite distinctly Scottish about it all? #cop26 https://t.co/eEUcFEQkJT

End of today’s @ExtinctionR demo. A phalanx of cops pause under the bridge. Deliberate public order tactic to maintain peace? Or brief panic because they’re all from places like Norfolk, Liverpool & London & none of them knew which way the Squinty Bridge was? 😂😂 #COP26Glasgow

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

The ⁦@ExtinctionR⁩ demo in Glasgow city centre is the biggest we’ve seen so far during ⁦@COP26⁩

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

@GlasgowCC That’s good, hope they are as quick with the tools as you guys with the Twitter replies, nice to hear back so fast.

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

Nice to see the play park at #pollockcountrypark looking so grand. Roughly 40% of everything here is missing broken or locked. What’s going on @GlasgowCC

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

Amid the endless weirdness and frantic tidying up, the Clyde is like a millpond tonight. Some sort of pre #COP26 calm before the storm?

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

A short while into Trump’s second term and a full ten years before the Aberdeen Olympics ⁦@akmaciver⁩ wrote this alternative history about ⁦⁦@RuthDavidsonPC⁩ And it was quite good.... Or wasn’t, depending on what else happened. Or didn’t. https://t.co/ct1JpaytVV

Fascinatingly pointless:

My colleagues ⁦@BBCsarahsmith⁩ & ⁦@GlennBBC⁩ in a bit of piece to camera symmetry outside Bute House.

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

I went to my first gig in that building. Don’t see #derby in the Guardian very often. https://t.co/BT4NdCIlfq

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

First person in Scotland back at the bar? No booze till 11. Exciting day here. We’ll be on ⁦@BBCBreakfast⁩ just after 7.

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

Thank you, people down the street, now lockdown is nearly over, I hope your window based good cheer will stick around. #Glasgow

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

@STVCourtney In Derbyshire and Yorkshire it was ‘knock a door run’ pron: ‘ knockadoorrrun’

[jamescheyne @jamescheyne]

Farewell then scraggly beard face, your lockdown presence helped hide stress, curiosity and the occasional remnant of roll & bacon. #lockdownlocks
