There's been a warm yellow thing in the sky for several days now. All the inhabitants of this fair city have been out on the streets and in the parks marvelling at this strange phenomenon.
If it was like this a lot here, I reckon Glasgow could go one of two ways:
1) We would become more chilled out, like the Spanish or the Greeks or something.
2) We'd be like Iraq.
Option two is more likely, I would have thought...
