We’re testing 25,000 men across Scotland free of charge, just a simple blood test. In the first week alone, over 1,400 men came forward, and we’ve already identified cases early. That’s lives changed and potentially lives saved. Visit scottishprostate.com to get involved, it could make all the difference.

NEW: Scottish Fire and Rescue are dealing with a fire in a building near Glasgow Central and the station has had to close. Customers should make their own travel arrangements, as we cannot guarantee that you will be able to complete your journey. • No services will be able to call at Glasgow Central high level. • Services are still able to run through Glasgow Central low level, but the station will be closed, and no services will stop there. Please use Argyle Street instead.

Please share if you can. @TheSMIA Scottish Music Industry Association published an interview about the @BBCRadioScot schedule changes, and how their impact is already stretching far beyond musicians. Please have a read. Thank you. tr.ee/SnV5ry 📸 Kevin Linnett

Our first win! Please share. @BBCRadioScot backtracked after @TheSMIA open letter. They appear to be realising how catastrophic for Scottish music their Senior leadership’s decisions have been. More change is possible.

John Cooper Clarke, the Salford-born 'punk poet' genius with a razor-sharp mind who performed on bills with Sex Pistols, The Fall, Joy Division and more, and who struggled with heroin addiction, teamed with Honey Monster as they advertised Sugar Puffs in the 80s. Well, of course!
