Nice photo, but God how I hate the modern advertising that keeps getting slapped on it.

Our wee boy got to peek inside this refurbished box today (the branding is, perhaps, unfortunate).

P.S. With the exception of the door, all the windows are currently boarded up.

In other news, Tommy Chong has been announced as replacing Jodie Whittaker as the next Doctor. ;)

In the cities in the streets there's a tension you can feel,
The breaking strain is fast approaching, guns and riots.
Politicians gamble and lie to save their skins,
And the press get fed the scapegoats,
Public Enema Number One.

Who's Tommy Chong...A famous druggie? ???

I had the pleasure to be on Glasgow earlier this week and so I went to have a look at this box. I'm unsure if it still operates as the CBD oil thingy as I saw it outside of business hours on a Wednesday. The box isn't in the worst of shapes but it has seen better days - six windows boarded up  :o  with the remaining two looking very sorry, the front style is broken and coming off at the bottom, the box is dirty and someone clearly gave some - but not all - of the box a makeover with an ever so slightly different red (look at the corner post on the first picture and look for where the two shades of red meet - although subtle, that's not a trick of the light).
