Have you ever been to Glasgow? I've been there so often, it feels like a home away from home for me. I stay with my good friend Kay; I play with her dog Boris and together we catch up over copious cups of tea. 

When I'm not drinking tea, I catch the bus into town and roam around.

I missed my stop and accidentally ended up at Glasgow University, which was no hardship because I love the quandrangle there. I also dropped into the Hunterian Museum and learned a lot about Lord Kelvin.

I made my way into the city and found Buchanan Street abuzz and the crowd bopping to a rockabilly group called The Best Bad Influence.

Kay stables her horse at a farm so on Saturday we went for a walk around the back roads, where I spied brambles, thistles and cows.

On Sunday we went for a walk around the Pollok Country Park, then visited the Burrell Collection.

Pollok House is surrounded by beautiful gardens and the dahlias were in bloom.

My favourite vista

The urn that I first photographed about 20 years ago on black and white film.

I still have more images to share with you, but as this blog post has taken me more hours than I care to share, I'll be back next week with some highlights of my time in Paris. 

Bye for now,

Jillian
