The Sighthill Stone Circle in Glasgow.
Created by Duncan Lunan in the 1970s on the site of a former chemical factory, this is thought to be the first astronomically-aligned stone circle created in over three thousand years. It was moved to a new site in the late 2010s, but it was correctly re-aligned when it was re-built.

It's a lovely day in Glasgow. The glen back home has been somewhat inclement for the last few days. Down here though we have a wee breeze and an acceptable temperature. It's always a pleasure to come back here even if only fleetingly. #PeopleMakeGlasgow
You find many strange things abandoned outside of Glasgow pubs on a Sunday morning, but this is the first time I've found a piano! Needless to say, someone had been sick on it.

Kelvingrove Park in the west end of Glasgow as the sun was going down this evening at the end of another long, hot summer's day.

You know you're in the west end of Glasgow when you spot some litter in the park at the end of a sunny day and then realise it's a stray packet of Sainsbury's garlic stuffed halkidiki olives!

The Mitchell Library in Glasgow looking magnificent as ever in today's spring sunshine.
It was designed in the Edwardian Baroqie Style by WB Whitie and built in the early 1900s.

Sometimes on my travels around Glasgow, I come across truly random things, like a cassette of Dionne Warwick's Heartbreaker from 1982 hanging on a twig beside a path in the Botanic Gardens!

The central hall of Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow.
Like many Glaswegians, the Kelvingrove Art Gallery has been my home away from home on many a wet and otherwise miserable winter's day, both as a child and as a grown-up.

2022 Santa Dash at Glasgow Green.
This was I how I spent my Sunday morning. It's raising money for the Beatson Cancer Charity, which is a charity very close to my own heart.

One man And His Cone.
There is a late night sport in Glasgow (usually conducted after a couple of drinks) of placing road cones on the top of statues. This one of the Duke of Wellington in Royal Exchange Square is now so well known for being adorned in this manner that it has become an unofficial symbol of the city.
