Clydebank comedian Kevin Bridges has had his say on grass cutting last week - and it's fair to say the issue isn't growing on him.
The much-loved stand-up star, who grew up in Hardgate, caused hilarity when he called out West Dunbartonshire Council on an overgrown Goldenhill Park.
The 31-year-old had returned home to walk his golden Labrador Annie last Tuesday when he noticed the length of the grass.

True to form, he tweeted: “Here! WDCouncil. The Goldenhill Park could be doing with a trim... 2 tennis baws down. Dug not impressed... #wild #gowdiepark”.
The post stirred up a strong local reaction, with people cracking up at the comedian’s jovial banter before sharing their experience of the grass.
John Friel replied: “Your (sic) lucky I lost ma dug in that grass”.

Meanwhile, fellow Twitter user Ann Marmion joked: “Can you find my four golf balls hahaha”.
Recently the SNP-led council administration announced they would divert £270,000 into their greenspace budgets thanks to new Scottish Government money for school clothing grants.
