I adore this Look-In cover promoting Sky, and it's the most 1975 artefact ever: Sky himself, The Tomorrow People, Brian Moore, two hit wonders Hello ("New York Groove" is a banger), and the Bay City Rollers, all present and correct!

Exciting to see this taking shape. It’s the external design of the new Faifley school campus inspired by the Cochno Stone motifs and colours. #FaifleyRocks #UrbanPrehistory

Saddening read by Dani Garavelli in The Herald on the closure of The Glasgow School of Art stained glass course = frustrating when it’s a traditional skill at risk. Glasgow City Heritage Trust will be soon be funding a major stained glass conservation project to address this 👀👇 heraldscotland.com/news/25278417.…

The Long Barrow at All Cannings, visited yesterday. This monument represents a very important revival of building these structures.

This is a cool idea - let’s try to solve the carved stone ball enigma via a design competition. A panel of very well informed judges (not me incidentally) will consider theories & creative responses from anyone! Please RT The Megalithic Portal Ancient Sites & Stones imagination-works.uk/competition/

Well done to Past Glasgow for keeping the GGF content out there whilst we get our act together! Lovely atmospheric shot (Colin Baxter?) with Argyll & Bute and BBC exhibits looking great in the evening light and the circular Rendezvous beyond.
