That's a good point - if anyone wants any student-free shots there are only 24 days of summer hols!

Possibly the longest walk ever today. Me and the wee man got off the train at Partick and I gave him free reign to take me wherever he wanted. 4 hours later we were at Queen Street Station.

Here's some shots.

#1 Glasgow University

#2 Hunterian Museum

#3 Cloisters

#4 Cloisters again.

#5 Watch Yersel Auld Yin!

I like to pop in here to pass the time of day. It would be perfect if they had Costa or Cafe Nero instead of Starbucks.

Buchanan Street just in front of Royal Exchange Square.

I love all the photos but ......

...... I left Glasgow in late 1960 so, while many pictures of older buildings can suggest a location to my ever decreasing memories of the place of my birth (some might call it Alzheimers), I'd love it if contributors would caption their photos.

I'm using HG to reminisce because, nearing sixty, guessing competitions are out of the question !

Regards,
Tombro :P
Today is the first day of the rest of your life !

Good point Tombro. I have added descriptions to my last few posts and will remember to do this in future.

Thanks
