Snow



The cat fails to evade the camera again. I was up in the West End earlier but unfortunately the snow had all melted by the time I got outside, so there are no snowy tower shots...

Starry, Starry Night





A couple more shots from yesterday.

Pachelbel Rant

Just spotted this on YouTube. It's very funny (although he does have it in for second violins and it takes ages to load).

Glasgow in the rain

Looking up at the lights.

Getting out of the rain

Merchant City sign

Is this a City Council plot to get rid of some citizens? (You might not be able to make it out there, but it's an advert for one-way tickets to Donegal).

Still in Royal Exchange Square


Presumably these are the people who come to get you if you make a bad cappuccino...

View into the Gallery of Modern Art


The ceiling of lights


Figure in the light

From the bus




I took these from the bus with the camera sitting on my knee, which worked rather less well than I'd hoped. I thought these two were quite Whistler though. No, really...

Nth Gardner Street

Still no new pictures, but it's stopped raining at the moment, so perhaps I can get some tomorrow. In the meantime, here's a picture of Nth Gardner Street. I think it's supposed to be short for "North Gardner Street", but I always hoped there might be an "N+1th" around somewhere...

Tourist Information

There was an article in the paper today about bizarre questions people have asked the Glasgow Tourist Information Office, and this guy has kindly gathered them all up into one place. My favourite one is "What time does the Loch Ness Monster surface? And who feeds it?" Perhaps I could apply for the job...

Elephants of London

Who would have thought? I think my brother's office is on Kingsway. I wonder if he's spotted that one...
