COULD someone at Glasgow City Council tell me why every time it rains in this city there appear lochs and lakes everywhere – they were called puddles in my day.
If you walk along Argyle Street from Jamaica Street to Glassford Street, there is not one drain doing its job – they are all blocked.
And, if you try to cross Glassford Street at Argyle Street, you could often do with a pair of waders.
Are there no drain cleaning machines out there any more?
As our councillors only pop out of their central-heated offices for a photoshoot, I would like to inform them that we live in a very wet climate, so do something about this before we all drown or have to catch a boat instead of a bus.

I WAS recently a patient in a Glasgow hospital when it was visited by Infection Control Nurses.
I don't know if they did any inspection of the rooms or toilets, but I was amazed that a cleaner cleaned a toilet with a toilet brush, without flushing to clear the bowl.
Needless to say, no Infection Control Nurses spoke to any patients either.

JUST had to e-mail you and say thank you for a picture in Monday's Evening Times.
My dad would have been 80 last week and he passed away 10 years ago.
One of his favourite weeks of his life was when Perry Como came to Glasgow in 75.
I was two, and I never heard the end of it. He's standing right beside him with my big brother.
The are both called Guido Corvi, from the Glasgow fish and chip family.
Thank you for an amazing surprise.

I thought I was going to be the latest victim of a Glasgow pothole on Saturday while driving to Bellahouston Leisure Centre.
The craters in Paisley Road West before turning on to Bellahouston Drive are shocking. The condition of this part of the road is a disgrace.
