Oor Wullie, wee Jeemy and the Toon Cat

Noticed my first one of these statues yesterday, they seem to have appeared basically overnight. They are Oor Wullie’s statues and are part of their BIG Bucket Trail to raise money for children in hospital. In total there will be hundreds of statues in 5 cities (Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Inverness, Dundee) with 61 in Edinburgh alone. This one is right opposite my office so an easy subject for a blip today. The story of this statue is that Oor Wullie holds a ginger Tom the Toon Cat. Wee Jeemy, Wullie’s pet mouse, does not seem so pleased about his closeness and stows away anxiously in his pocket.

Expect a few more blips of these when I have nothing else to blip on future days
