This recent trend of fires is quite depressing. If it continues at this rate Glasgow will look like any other crappy city.


Cult! Or one of those interweb boutiques!

Demolition status as of this afternoon (29th Jan).

Looks like they've got carried away with the bulldozers and are continuing into the next building along!

As in the style of the ghoul pool IE placing bets on famous people to die next,Queen mum Pope etc ,I think we should have a similar contest with listed buildings.
In one of the papers yesterday a GDC spoksman said "We can not be expected to save every listed building in Glasgow"in refrence to the old Post Office building in George Sq.
Any Ideas as to what Glasgow landmark is going to burn down next??

"We can not be expected to save every listed building in Glasgow"


Er, why not? Isn't that rather the point of getting them listed?

And it would be nice if they demonstrated an effort to save, oh I don't know, maybe at least one!
