Right said Fred
Thanks to Fred Macaulay, one of the nicest guys on radio, for inviting me to join him this morning. I’ve been in a fair few broadcasting stations around the world; call me biased, narrow-minded, anything you like, (within reason) but my global favourite is the riverside HQ of BBC Scotland. I envy those who work there; if they had any office space available I’d rent it and commute from Gullane. For those who missed my slot and would like to catch up, try this link:

As it’s radio, it should work internationally. When you open it move the slider along until you’re 50 minutes into the programme. Better still, move it 30 – 35 minutes in and you’ll catch Stephen Poliakoff and Jacqueline Bisset.
(By the way, I meant to ask, but forgot. What the hell are they building next to the SECC and the Armadillo?)
Yes, it works! It’s interesting to put a voice to the face too.
Which one?
Yours! Your photo, that is.
I tried!
And failed? Too bad; radio is available online internationally. I’d hoped the player was too.
I got the player and just can’t locate your bit-or Fred, for that matter. Maybe I’ll use a little more patience ’til I master it., I was attempting to use the link on my phone unsuccessfully but got on the computor and had my muddied success,. Oh well, old dogs, etc.!
You have to look for Radio Scotland. The show is called ‘Macaulay and Company’. Or just try to click the link again.
QJ – to answer your question, it’s ‘the hydro’, our new home of entertainment!

Impressive.
