#9 - Traffic cones on the heads of statues about town. Started in the 80s by university students, this is the best way to entertain yourself in the middle of the night after a few drinks. Makes me laugh every time. Only in Scotland.

Style spotter

Sitting at my desk yesterday, working on hard news stories full of policy and statistics. I was asked if I would like to go out and find some trendy Glasweigans on the street. Colin and I hit the cobbles, and found these kids out enjoying the sun. Work can be fun. I haven't laughed this hard in weeks. Style, Evening Times style.
