I read with interest the story regarding the lady who was refused entry into the above establishment as she was wearing a Saltire.

I experienced a similar problem a number of years ago when I went into a Wetherspoons in Shawlands. I am a cyclist and was on the way home after a day out, but was still wearing my cycling top.

The colours of the top were red white and blue. As Celtic were playing Seville that evening and there was also a sign on the door banning football colours, I was asked to leave.

When I calmly explained that the top was not associated with any particular football team, the security guard was very apologetic and and made it clear that I was more than welcome.

I guess that the security personnel who were on duty at Camperdown Place were very cautious. Sadly it would appear that it just depends if you have someone on the door is who is reasonable whether you gain admission or not.

It is also a bit hypocritical for someone to be refused entry to an establishment like this when so many clothes today are adorned with the Stars and Stripes and other national flags. I wonder if those who wear this type of attire are also declined entry/asked to leave Wetherspoons establishments?

POP stars can last forever or become one hit wonders. If we don't like them we don't buy their goods, thus consigning them to obscurity. On the other hand politicians make promises which they don't keep and we are stuck with them until the next elections.

Lastly they are promising large improvements if they win such as NHS, benefits. If they had kept their promises last time round they would not have to repeat themselves.

THERE is just hours left until the polls close and I know for some people it can't com quick enough.

However, just think yourself lucky that you don't live in America when there would be wall to wall adverts on for the contenders.

Every channel you turn on in America in election time has the rivals and fundraisers battling it.

At least we haven't got that bad yet.

Good to see Glasgow becoming a stronger and stronger conference market. I see the latest one, an energy event, will bring in millions to the city. Let's hope we can win many more.
