B listed buildings - which is why it's slightly puzzling that neither the refurb works last year - which is when it was painted from the traditional Glasgow red to the traditional Dr Who blue - nor the moving it to the side of the street - seem to have required any kind of listed building consent. I'd have thought that moving it from the middle of the street, where its position was highlighted by the toilet railings, to the side, and changing its colour, would constitute altering both the character and the setting of the listed building, but what do I know?

I smashed a windae once on the box at Balornock Rd./Broomfield Rd./Drumbottie Rd., only to find there was a copper in the box. I had to run like fuck that day.
