Daily Record - Tuesday 15 December 1987 David Platt to Hibs for £100k? That would've been some signing. Unfortunately for the Hibees, he chose Villa, 62 England caps and Serie A instead.

Haha! Fascinating flicking through the Spanish sports pages trying to paint us as footballing Neanderthals that caused an upset, when it was far from the case.

I cannot stress enough just how incredible this montage of Princes Street in 1980 is; it's like having access to a retro Google Street View. You can just about count on one hand the number of brands still trading. edinburghlive.co.uk/news/history/g…

On September 1, 1859 the earth was hit by the largest recorded solar storm in history, which wreaked havoc on telegraph systems and sparked intense aurora events here in Scotland and around the world. Absolutely fascinating to see how it was initially reported.

Last night I fulfilled a 7+ year promise to Dave McLean to get a Big Moon or Big Sun shot behind the Forysth Sphere - as a gift to thank him for his Lost Edinburgh campaign to have it reinstated - sorry it took so long pal Lost Edinburgh #ForsythSphere

All this talk of an Oasis reunion has reminded me of the interview I did with Ayako Misawa (the Japanese woman who filmed them at King Tut's in '93) for Glasgow Live last year. "Nobody knew who was playing on stage at the time" glasgowlive.co.uk/news/history/s…
