What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Predictions for 2021

      1. Boris Johnston will achieve his longstanding ambition to become a former Prime Minister.
      2. Stock market higher at end of 2021 than at the beginning (FTSE – 6,460)  but higher inflation too (most recent CHPI – 0.6%).
      3. No progress for those hoping for marriage equality in the Church of England.
      4. State based hackers turn their disruptive attention to open source software. (Watch out WordPress).
      5. Donald Trump will remain the centre of attention.
      6. There will be midnight mass in St Mary’s Cathedral, Glasgow next Christmas Eve. People will be wearing masks.
      7. A rocky year for Nicola Sturgeon but the SNP will be returned triumphant to Holyrood, despite their record.
      8. No vote on Scottish Independence this year but like it or not, constitutional change is a-coming.
      9. Attempt to repeal the Human Rights Act, removing the provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights from UK law. (It is a stepping stone to restoring capital punishment – the Brexiteers are not done with us yet).
      10. Legislation emerges in Scotland to restrict fireworks.

    And this is all in Maryhill? There will be great wailing and gnashing of teeth in Newton Mearns and Giffnock when the news gets out..

      Quail here too. Quail eggs from Waitrose though, not yet Lidl.

    West Enders eat moose. South Siders eat Wholefoods. I know where I’d rather be.

      I’m not at all sure that any shop selling a few nuts and bits and bobs of fresh veg on either side of the river can be as impressive as Moose in Maryhill.

    Does the Maryhill Lidl also offer Canadian Lobster? Not that I am bragging but the needy of the Rubarb Triangle need some joy in their lives and our Lidl is meeting this need

    Yes, lobster is on offer in Maryhill.

    I choose not to crow about lobster for it comes from the sea and consequently should not be eaten.

      The kashrut/OT problem is the lack of fins and scales, not the sea per se.

    The Opera Project was a double bill of Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas and Poulenc’s Les Mamelles de Tirésias at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. This review appeared originally at Opera Britannia. Rating: At first sight, the pairing of Dido and Aeneas with Poulenc’s surrealist piece Les Mamelles de Tirésias seems to make little sense at…
