Can we not put trees in large pots that would be movable but still allowing us to have shade.

"A historian told me this week George Square started life as a pond where our forefathers rid themselves of animal carcasses, much like shopping trolleys in town centre canals. This casts a bit of a shadow over those designs with water features.."
The other issue is the statues.
For those shedding molten copper tears over their loss: name them. Here: Sir Walter Scott, arrived from Edinburgh; the Germanic Queen Victoria and her consort Albert; and English PMs Peel and Gladstone. I have no objection to their removal but replacement likenesses of Glasgow natives should be sought.

Interesting that most of those designs keep Walter Scott's column there. I'm a little disappointed. I was planning on finding a good vantage point in the window of the Counting House to watch them trying to move that bu88er through the streets. At work the other day, we came to the conclusion that the only place they could put it was either Blythswood Square, or somewhere along High Street, because it's the only two places on a straight route from the Square. Unless they wanted to transport it by crane in an upright position. Either way, it'll make for interesting viewing!
