What a forlorn sight to see. Scotland's very last patch of snow from the previous winter about to expire, on Aonach Beag near Ben Nevis. We weren't sure if this or Sphinx was going to be last to disappear, so now it's settled. In any event it doesn't matter. Scotland is about to be completely snow-free for the third consecutive year. It used to be the case, not so long ago, that one year with now snow was unusual. Two consecutive years would have been unprecedented. Three years is, in my view, very much into the realms of a fundamental change in our weather systems. 📷Colin Hutt

For anyone interested in Asset-Based Community Development #ABCD in Scotland, this looks like a great opportunity to connect to and learn along with others.

Excellent summary report highlighting opps & challenges re community ownership in urban areas, w some good common-sense recommendations. A good read for anyone interested in land reform & community ownership in Scotland. Glad @WmGrantFound could help support this action research.

This is a sensible, evidence-based answer to the perennial “how will pay you for it” question If UK political leaders had the courage to give similar answers, I suspect we’d be in a very different place

Never mind the ONS's basket of goods & services, it's the rising price of the Star Bar's 3-course lunch deal - prominently advertised above the door - that's my inflation tracker. Was £2.50 when I moved to Glasgow, I think. Enjoyed this wee article on a Southside institution.

A new dawn for children's rights As the sun rises over Scotland, @together_sacr is flying the UN & Scotland flags from the summit of Ben Nevis to celebrate children's rights becoming law through the #UNCRCScotland Act. Happy UNCRC Commencement Day to children across Scotland🎈

Important the National Wealth Fund doesn't nationalise the risk but privatise the profit from its 'catalytic' investments. Ensuring it shares in the upside where it materialises is essential to sustain its ability to continue investing, given the scale of transformation required.
