  1. I’ll sing a song of Glasgow town,
    That stands on either side
    The river that was once so fair,
    The much insulted Clyde…

    —Marion Bernstein, “A Song of Glasgow Town”
    from A SONG OF GLASGOW TOWN: The collected poems of Marion Bernstein (ASL, 2013)

  2. “Published mainly in the Glasgow Weekly Mail and Glasgow Weekly Herald, her poems could reach an audience in excess of 200,000 readers… yet Marion Bernstein has a good claim to being the greatest Scottish feminist we’ve never heard of”

  3. Wanted a husband who doesn’t suppose,
    That all earthly employments one feminine knows—
    That she’ll scrub, do the cleaning, and cooking, and baking,
    And plain needlework, hats and caps, and dressmaking…

    —“Wanted A Husband”, by Marion Bernstein (1846–1906), born #OTD, 16 September. A 🎂🧵

  4. Need to learn more about #TheFlyingScotsman Graeme #Obree who broke #bicycle world records with selfmade, innovative bicycles and enormous physical and psychological strength.

    #Glasgow Transportation Museum had some snippets from BBC but I couldn't find it on YouTube so far. Graeme told about his first record where he failed one day and retried 24hrs later. Everybody said that it's impossible to recover within a day but he proved them wrong with a very unusual method. 🤯

    Awesome person. 🙇

  5. #Glasgow had the third #subway worldwide.

    It's original version was run by a circular belt that drove the carriages. 🤯

    Interesting concept.
