1.👑Kenneth I, 843-858. Kicks the whole thing off with a respectable 15 years earning him a crystal jubilee🔮. Seems to have done a fair bit of uniting/conquering and was a fan of dressing up as an angel in a costume made of fish scales. 8/10 🪨
2.👑Donald I 858-862. Doesn't live up to his famous fish clad brother with a fairly poor 3 years and 3 months earning a leather jubilee 🐄. Wasn't about long, didn't even die in battle. 2/10🪨

@PlanetBGlasgow @tradougcions 'Scots Lore' (1895) was a magazine run from Bothwell St, Glasgow. Lots of random information in there.

@PlanetBGlasgow @tradougcions ‘Memorial Catalogue of the Old Glasgow Exhibition 1894’ (1896) is fantastic for old letters, manuscripts & images of varying sites around Glasgow. There's one in particular at the top of Buchanan st @ Sauchiehall st but all that's there is a cottage.

@PlanetBGlasgow @tradougcions ‘Select Views on the River Clyde’ (1830) is just what you assume from the title. Plenty of information about the history of each town the author passes through.
