Glasgow, Scotland
This is Torsa, my younger Irish Setter. She’s sitting next to me on a sofa to apologise for rolling in something horrible today requiring me to clean her up. Note the lack of eye contact. Shame is real.

This painting, most likely the Broomielaw, is entitled, ‘Glasgow, Saturday Night’ by John Atkinson Grimshaw. He was a Victorian artist famed for his nocturnal and urban scenes. I love the city of my birth, education and profession.

The Ed Sheeran/Macklemore issue is fascinating when the bien pensants on the subject of Palestine conveniently forget Macklemore’s apparent anti-Semitism.
