Thanks Allan!

My friend Allan in Glasgow sent me an update on the Glasgow Airport attack. John Smeaton is a baggage handler at the airport who was taking a smoke break when the terrorists drove into the terminal, he (and some others) rushed in to help the police detain the attackers. He exemplifies Glasgae spirit:

Check out the site in his honor, and the song written for him.

Cheers!

Saw this today. A terrorist drove a burning car into the terminal entrance at Glasgow airport. Seeing these sorts of evil acts is always sobering; to see it happen at a place your child has stood is particularly poignant.

My prayers are with ya’ll over there.

Have a great weekend.
