I made replicas including original Latin, and also a Scots, Gaelic and English versions to mark the 700th anniversary. Had to create a new font based on the original.

Bus fares in Glasgow are the most expensive of any British city. Reregulation of our buses through a regional franchise that is under public control will allow us to cap fares and set all routes and service levels. It's time to use the 2019 Transport Act powers and get it done.

Anyone with me here. One of the most depressing sights is seeing a device thrust in front of a child during a meal at a restaurant. What happened to nurturing through conversation and instilling the love of food and social eating. AARRRGH.
