Greg Thomas is a poet, artist, and writer based in Glasgow, with a particular interest in making and writing about concrete and visual poetries. He wrote the first book on concrete poetry in Britain and has several published collections of poetry including:  SPIRES/SPINES. PAPERVIEW, 2024.
A collection of poems and poem-objects from 2009-13, including works on found wood, stone, and glass, letter-transfer poems, acetone transfers, lino-tile poems, and felt-tip pen poems.
THRESHHOLDS. TIMGLASET, 2023.
A new collection of short and visually oriented poems, a sequel of sorts to particulates. Including the sequence  the skin of the sky: poems in the Faroe Islands.   In Greg Thomas’s exquisite new collection, meaning emerges at the threshold of sound and sense, breath and form, play and sincerity.  Hanna Tuulikki.
CANDLE POEMS. POEM ATLAS, 2023.
My first full collection of poem-objects. Candles and wax sculptures in bees' and soya wax with alkyd and vegetable colouring and lettering in acrylic paint pen.  There’s imagination and a subtle wit everywhere — in the making of the objects and in all the ways the book finds of showing them in action. Precarious, funny and moving, Candle Poems is a perfect small monument, to candles, to the bees and to us.  Peter Manson.
PARTICULATES. TIMGLASET, 2022.
A collection of short poems and visually oriented poems mostly from 2021-22, including the sequence  on book on drone on barra.  written on Barra in September 2021.  This quivering book! Each poem feels like a syntactic mirage: walking into a room and seeing dust particles in the light....poetry at its unwilting and unprogrammatic best.  Colin Herd. Thomas's poetry often touches on themes of environmental crisis and the politics of climate change, as well as ways of communicating with and being in the natural world. He is also a freelance arts journalist, with bylines in The Guardian, Art Monthly, Scottish Art News, and other titles.

It is a dream castle. When I arrived, it was the April holiday, there were almost no people on the road, only the old buildings stood in the cold air, solemn and heavy, which was awe-inspiring.

We came here on a spontaneous visit one Sunday afternoon in January and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our wee boy loved seeing the &ldquo;old fashioned house&rdquo; and was so well looked after by all the staff, from the cash register to the flat and back out again.

We went round twice (with a shift change between visits!) and the insight into one story of no doubt thousands like it in Glasgow was fantastic. Plus our boy thoroughly enjoyed colouring in his wallie dug. A hidden gem that is well worth the wander through Garnethill.

It is said that it can be traced back to the famous William Conquest period. It was built to commemorate St. Diego. It took hundreds of years to build and has been around for nearly a thousand years. It is the oldest religious building in the entire Scottish region. It is also a must-see for tourists.

George Square

George Square is located in Glasgow city center and is very conveniently accessible by train or subway. On nice days, you can sunbathe and watch pigeons in the square. It is close to the famous shopping street, where you can buy souvenirs, clothes, shoes and socks. There are also many restaurants and eateries to choose from. 
George Square is a must-see attraction. In addition to admiring the architecture of the square;during different festivals, such as Christmas, the square is built into a Christmas Market, becoming a dynamic and happy atmosphere.
