Visit North Lanarkshire, Scotland's No1 for flytipping...
I am sick of the media. Sustained campaign?
Special military operation?
It's war!!!? War, war, war, bloody and unscrupulous war!

Perhaps they have just given up already...
You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America.
And if it was any other presidentβs adviser who said something like this about any other minority, itβd be the instant end of their presidency.

Can anyone tell me what "Gart" means, as in Gartsherrie, Gartcosh?
It surely is a diamond in the rough...

A lynx lies on a moss-covered rock surrounded by greenery in a forest. Above, bold text reads, "Join the conversation on LYNX." Below the image, on an orange background, it says, "Complete our online questionnaire" and "Book a one-to-one conversation."
If you couldnβt make it to our lynx Information Sessions, there's still time to take part β browse the information materials, complete our online questionnaire or book a one-to-one conversation with a member of the Lynx to Scotland project team.

Hoversofas are the future!
The BAFTAs and Jamie Foxx.
It seems like Mr Foxx has no problem with the N word, provided it is for entertainment purposes.
Perhaps he should rethink his attack on John Davidson.

Why did the Irish bus driver not see the cyclist?
Sounds like a joke, but it isn't.
Instead of driving more attentively, Irish Bus Drivers are demanding every cyclist wear hi-viz.
Meanwhile, Irish cyclists are united in demanding every bus driver has their fecking eyes tested...

I do hope that they confiscated his passport.
I'd hate it if he flew off to some island somewhere to get away from it all...

Monklands Hospital has a railway station around five minutes walk away.
It has no disabled access.
It's replacement is being built out of town, and will primarily be reached by a new bypass road.
Car use is baked in.
If sold, then to the state it is worth nothing.
Many out of town hospitals have been built from the outset with car drivers in mind.
Hard to reach hospitals were designed to reduce A&E footfall.
They are reaping what they have sown.

start of George St article... 4. Princes Street / George Street β shock changes The Council is expecting more than Β£90m income (over 3 years) from the new Visitor Levy, and it had been expected that some Β£30m of this would go towards the promised major George Street project, incorporating a βcycle streetβ which would also form the crucial central link of CCWEL. However at the full council meeting on 12.2.26, an amendment proposed by the SNP, supported by Labour and the Lib Dems, won the day, defeating two (very different) alternatives from the Conservative and Green parties. The victorious amendment scrapped George Street funding, basically on the grounds that Princes Street is in more urgent need, and allocated Β£200K towards drawing up plans for Princes Street and the Waverley Valley.
Map showing new route 2. Foot of Walk to Dock St - official opening 10am Wed 18 March The new cycleroute, which extends the Leith Walk cycle lanes to Dock Street (with a later connection to Ocean Terminal) will be officially opened at 10.15am on Wednesday 18 March at Sandport Place bridge. The Spokes cargobike stall will be there (maps at special stall prices!) along with a Dr Bike and cargobikes to try at a Porty Community Energy stall. Please come along, see the ribbon-cutting, and say hello at our stall! Either come direct to Sandport Bridge, or meet at 10a.m. at the junction of Henderson Street with Yardheads, where there will be a walking party arriving at Sandport Bridge by 10.15 for the opening. The route (dashed blue line on the drawing below) is part of the wider Leith Connections project which aims to provide a more pleasant area to get about. It also will provide an alternative to the tramlined roads between Foot of Walk and Ocean Terminal.
Pictures of ghost bike before & after refresh by Infrasisters 5.2 Ghost Bikes You may know of the worldwide tradition, where concerned friends or members of the public sometimes install a white-painted βghost bikeβ at the site of a cycling fatality β a memorial to the victim and also a reminder and warning to other road users, not least motorists. A member of the public contacted us about the Kings Road Portobello junction ghost bike (StuartElliott & HeatherStronach), which was deteriorating, and Infrasisters kindly gave it a great refresh β after which Rosanna of Infrasisters then did the same at the West End (Zhi Min Soh). Meanwhile, years after these deaths, interim safety improvements have been made at Portobello, but permanent solutions are still awaited here and at the West End. Speak to your councillors if this concerns you.

Good news at last.
Now, shall they arrest Charlie Sausage Fingers for giving him money to help pay to keep the accusations quiet?
