IT'S not just motorists who should be aware of the the new drink-drive limit.

Those riding a pedal cycle should also abide by the new lower limit, as if you have had too much, you will not be able to control your bicycle.

And also those who ride a horse should stick to the new limit as well, as you would hardly be able to control the horse if you are over the limit.

I am sure the traffic police will be out to monitor those on a cycles and horses too.

Celebrity visit

GREAT to see dance group Diversity take time out of their tour to visit youngsters at Yorkhill. The world of celebrity can perhaps be a bit far removed from the rest of us, but the dancers have shown they have time for their fans.

There will be many children spending Christmas in hospital, and it can't be much fun for them or their families. So this visit must have raised their spirits.

Alcohol ban

RE Justice Secretary Michael Matheson dismissing calls from SFA to lift the ban on alcohol sales at football grounds.

All it would take is for a ned who'd had another drink at the match to start a fight, and the whole thing would collapse.

And there is nothing surer, given too many Scots' inability to drink and remain placid, especially in the emotionally charged environment of a football match.

I do enjoy getting a beer served to me while I watch matches from the stand in Japan, but I would rather do without it at matches back in Scotland.

Squinty puzzle

I JUST don't see the sense in the new road restrictions on the Squinty Bridge.

There are four dedicated bus lanes and two car lanes.There is nowhere for you to go if you are in a bike apart from the pavement.

We have a great new cycle lane along the Broomielaw - but cyclists either have the chance of sitting in traffic or coming off your bike and walking along the pavement.
