The Caduceus of the Roman god Mercury on Andrew Balfour's 1908 Holmlea Public School on the Southside of Glasgow. I'm guessing this was chosen because Mercury was, amongst other things, the god of financial gain, commerce, eloquence, travellers, communication, and merchants. However, he was also the god of trickery and thieves, which doesn't seem quite so appropriate for a school!

Astral theme for a Father

I'm always afraid that I won't live up to your hopes for me.
I always have the fear in my stomach of not living up to your expectations and the greatness that you have always inspired in me.
I'm often confused about what you think of me...
But I hope at least you know how much I love you dad... ❤️
