What's going in Glasgow, is there some kind of a protest happening or? Sorry, haven't been following the news lately.
Aye, I live in Newcastle.

No, no protest-there was a fire at the School of Art which is-or was- ans internationally acclaimed building by Mackintosh. Its a source of pride in Glasgow for a lot of folk and was ironically a few months away form being restored after a fire there 4 years ago. This fire was far worse and the building might be done for.
