I’ve tried not to mention that b****t Donald Trump in my column.
Readers of this column will be familiar with me describing attendance at the annual Burns Supper in my local parish hall hosted by the Lourdes Theatre Group.
On Saturday night, Tommy and I had a cosy wee night in with the fire blazing while the snow fell all around.
Last night, I attended my first political meeting of the year. Unfortunately it won’t be my last.
I can’t be the only one who is troubled by the salary levels of some of the top charity bosses in Scotland and across the UK. To learn that Stuart Earley of the Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SSPCA) took home £216,000 last year, National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) boss Peter Wanless was paid £162,000 and Harpal Kumar of Cancer Research UK pocketed £240,000 made me think about the millions who struggle to get by on low and minimum wages and donate regularly to these worthy causes.
I don’t often get jealous but the thousands, predominantly women of ‘my generation’ of course, who managed to get tickets to see the legendary Bay City Rollers perform at the Barrowlands this week make me jealous.
I’m really enjoying the Christmas period this year even although the panic and rush is truly underway.
Sad news can fair put you on a downer.
