Hi
Just got this from BBC

A804 Glasgow City - North Street closed both ways at the Kent Road junction in Glasgow, because of a building fire.

Hi folks,
I do hope everyone is ok at Cafe India - this restaurant gets very good write-ups.
The Mitchell is only a narrow street away from it. You can see how near in this photie -

The parapet to the left of the dome is on the SE corner of the library.

The restaurant is next to a backpackers' hostel amid a row of shops and near the city's Mitchell Library which is Europe's largest public reference library.

Only "near the city's Mitchell Library"
