This morning there were police and drumming. Wondering if we were already having some celebration of Glasgow's 850th anniversary, I wandered out into the neighbourhood and found myself witnessing another Orange Order march. They are very pro-Protestant pro-UK and I remain surprised by just how many people around here of all ages feel strongly enough to march with uniforms and bands and suchlike. We appear to have a few lodges around here, I think they report up to a grand Glasgow-wide lodge that reports up to an even grander Scottish one.
