Glasgow cycling folks - any tips for getting from the Great Western Road onto Sauchiehall Street? Open to alternative routes that avoid that mess but the canal is out as it'll be evening. Not sure I fancy the M8 underpass for the same reason...

John Honeyman's magnificent Barony North Church on Cathedral Square in Glasgow. Built in 1878, it's designed on an ornate Italianate style. This is a church which always seems to get overlooked, in favour of its Medieval neighbour, but it's a gorgeous building in its own right.

Hubworld’s HubQuiz: A Tri-City Test of Gaming Knowledge
Get ready to flex your trivia muscles! Hubworld is bringing its popular videogames pub quiz to three cities for HubQuiz Spring 2025 – a three day celebration of gaming knowledge. This isn’t your average pub quiz! Expect a creative combo of trivia and game show elements, creating a unique, entertaining and fun night out.
Hubworld is also calling on local artists to participate in an ‘Artist Spotlight’ initiative, a recurring feature of the Dundee Games Meetup. This is a bi-monthly event that aims to showcase and celebrate artists within the Dundee games community by providing them with a paid opportunity to display their work (more on this below…)
HubQuiz Spring 2025
Whether you’re a seasoned pro or industry newcomer, everyone from across the games ecosystem is welcome to join the fun and battle to prove their team is the brainiest in Scotland.
Assemble your crack team of up to six and prepare for battle! Doors open at 6:00 PM, with the HubQuiz kicking off at 7:00 PM.
And what’s a quiz without prizes? Hubworld is bringing a haul of goodies, including a coveted Studio Trophy, game keys, goodie bags, and their own special brand of ‘chaotic prizes’. With more to come…
Here’s the all-important itinerary for the HubQuiz tour:
- Glasgow (30/04): Revolution, 84 Mitchell St, Glasgow G1 3NA
- Edinburgh (01/05): Voodoo Rooms: Speakeasy, 19a W Register St, Edinburgh EH2 2AA
- Dundee (02/05): TopDog Sports Bar, 142 W Marketgait, Dundee DD1 1NJ
Important Notes for :
- While tickets are tied to a specific city, Hubworld assures attendees that if your ticket accidentally shows the wrong city, you’re still good to go, as long as it’s valid for that night.
- As this is a touring quiz, attendees are kindly asked to pick one city to attend.
- Tickets will be available on the door, but with previous HubQuizzes selling out, grabbing tickets in advance is highly recommended.
- Flying solo or have a small group? No worries! There will be opportunities to form “open mix” teams on the night, or you can connect with potential teammates beforehand in the Game Dev Discord servers for:
Beyond the quiz itself, the venues will be open for attendees to catch up and connect after the final scores are tallied. It’s a great chance to network and socialise with fellow games industry professionals.

Saint Martha stained glass window for St. Ninians church. Bannockburn.
I don't know quite what was creating this silhouette on a window of a Glasgow tenement that I came across last night, but whatever it is, it sure looks like they're planning something!
