Most people noticed a certain warmth in Scotland, or Glasgow, yesterday, Tuesday, 3rd March 2026

Meanwhile, back in the real world
Anyone else noticed patches of daffs in grass beside roads bloom earlier than those far from roads?
Any experts on car exhaust vs plant needs know why?

Nice close up
When I was there the street was a building site and it was surrounded by junk
Could not even tell if it was an installation or just dumped there waiting for something to happen
So, I had to dig and find its story
