Welcome to another week - it's hard to believe, but it's February already. The mornings are getting brighter and the news agenda is looking busy. So sit back for a read and we'll bring you the very latest.
First up, our Education Correspondent Calum Ross has been looking at which languages are being studied the most at senior level in our schools - and the language to come out at No.1 may surprise you.
New documents produced by the Institute for Fiscal Studies have shown an extra £1.5 billion is to be spent on the health service in Scotland this year - so expect the Scottish Government to be under pressure to use the money wisely. Our Political Correspondent Rachel Amery brings you the full report.
Lastly for today, Scotland’s largest local authority is urging the owners of thousands of empty homes in the city to sell or rent out their properties to help combat a housing crisis.
It's trivia time! Your question for today: Who is the author of The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency and 44 Scotland Street, which returns to The Scotsman today?
Whatever your plans for the rest of today, have a good one.
