I had a lovely time in spite of the chair/scooter disaster couldn't have the chair I wanted and the scooter broke down and they didn't have a replacement so I was back to relying on Rolly. I wouldn't recommend that hire company to anyone, they were useless. I'm paying for all that activity now (in pain and exhausted) and will be for a few days, but it was worth it.

Other than that, I had a lovely time and it was really nice to meet everyone. Good food, good craic and good company, what more could you ask? Northe and I went through to Edinburgh on Sunday where I proceeded to curl his hair with tales of plague, ghouls and ghosts, murders and body snatchers, and all in a huge downpour. We ended up in the museum of Scotland looking at some of the exhibits and drying off. Then it was back to Glasgow in time to get the train home.

Hope you are recuperating well - feeling pretty tired myself after what was (for me!) a packed weekend! 🙂 Finished it off yesterday with a visit to the Riverside Museum and Glenlee Tall Ship and an afternoon back in the Counting House with @Hazel 🙂 Plane journey home ran to schedule 🙂 A most enjoyable trip! I'm missing all the Scottish accents already!

Spotted this on Wilson Street:



Hold on! Who's that? 😱 Tom Baker, clearly, looking at the scarf!



And one for @AlisonM 🙂 (Wellington isn't on George Square, he's across the road and round the corner! 🙂)

Good to see you too. Sorry I missed everyone on Saturday (Dad problems), but I did not say I would be there. Great pity those you said they would be there, failed to appear.
Really pleased newbies made it - again sorry I missed meeting you on Saturday, maybe next year

Nice photos, and at least her nibs got her picture taken.

Princess Fiona is Shrek's wife Carol, don't tell me you've never seen Shrek! If not you must remedy it now, you must watch all three!

Actually, there are four. 😛😉 Some people don't like the fourth movie (a what-if exploring what might have happened if the events of the first movie didn't go the way they did), but I do!
