…Night and Day by Joe Jackson. Fantastic album - his best I would say.
The Nightfly by Donald Fagan. A timeless album, great production.
Scott 3 by Scott Walker. Big speakers, a warm fire and a cup of tea will do nicely.

The Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs - this book will cure you of your adolescent Irvine Welsh phase.

Cafe Andaluz in St. Vincent Place, Glasgow. Great menu. The house white is a bit vinegary as an apertif, so save that first mouthful for when your food arrives - it works well with most things on the menu.

And finally, wrap up in a warm scarf, take a walk through a poverty stricken area to see how beautiful it looks in the winter (well, it’s cold right!) sunshine. Then reward your new perspective with a nice cup of chai. Starbucks will do - you’ll feel THAT good.
