The down side of living in #Maryhill is that we peasants don't get our streets gritted in icy conditions by #GlasgowCityCouncil. Therefore, i just slipped and fell very hard on #Kelvindale Road outside the #Wyndford...
The up side of living here is that strangers rushed to help, and a man in a car offered to drive me to wherever i was going.
I'm okay — nothing broken as far as i can tell. But i think i'll be feeling it tomorrow.

Today someone stole the #Buddha statue that @OrTheWhale and i had outside our flat in the #Wyndford, #Maryhill, #Glasgow, so i wrote this: The Strange Case of the Disappearing Buddha

The #Wyndford may have entered a time warp; @OrTheWhale just saw a mum throw a jeely piece from her window to her son who was in the street below.
Despite what a photo in @TheNational suggests, i am not involved with Nick Durie's hate groups. I contacted the author of the article several times, but got no response.

This morning, we woke to the singing of goldfinches. Now, late evening, I'm enjoying the sound of kids playing outside the new flat, though they woke @OrTheWhale. Parents (with drinks), a dog, and three offspring running around the play area. I sat on the veranda and watched them as I drank tea.

i am curious as to what GHA's (Glasgow Housing Association) environmental assessment of the Wyndford high flats reveals as they decided to demolish 600 social housing flats during an extreme housing shortage.
here is Chris Leslie's photo essay about the demolition of our homes:

Today @OrTheWhale and I were out with comrades in the #wyndfordtenantsunion, gathering signatures for our petition against the rent increase. She got called a Yankee and told it was none of her business, much to her amusement.

The message to Cube, the housing association that runs the Wyndford housing scheme, is clear this morning, written on the football pitch at the high flats: FREEZE RENTS. Photo by @OrTheWhale
