Started a placement. Doing research and helping with a reinterpretation of an old tobacco merchant's house on Miller St. Looking forward to learning about it all, and it will hopefully go along nicely with my current studies on "Power and Politics in a Post-Colonial Museum".
Love it lots.

An incredible slice of bygone Glasgow life. Renfield St captured in glorious colour back in 1958. We're standing on the corner of St Vincent St outside where Bread Meats Bread is today. Across the road behind the tram we can see Piercy and Lawson's hat shop.

Haha I know!! Purely because it was so different to what I was used to, but over time it started doing my nut in. I also got the iPad mini last month and I was obsessed so I wanted to just go full apple (theyβve got their hooks in me).

One of the worst things is the people. I've met some of my favourite people through streaming, but literally some of the worst. People show you what they want you to see, but so many of them are the absolute worst of the worst. At least IRL you can see through the facade.

Everybody wants to be seen until it happens. I have been living the dream away from the camera and just being offline. I am so relaxed. Feel connected to people again. Content creation is so soulless and lonely at times.

These two views at Anniesland station were taken a year apart. The first shows the dismantling of the old bridge in 1936, while the second shows the new bow string bridge by Sir William Arrol & Co nearing completion in 1937.

Watched this again recently after about 15 years and the way I GASPED at that bit. I guess when it first came out, it didn't get the same visceral response as it does now. π¬

Picture of dando crouching, you can see their leg and their hands are fixing the bottom of their Jeans, to reveal irn-bru socks. Dando is also wearing an orange irn-bru Hoodie with the 1901 logo, which you can just make out in the frame of the image.
Still buzzing over my socks.
