I had a little task to do today, someone has charged me with looking for pressed pennies, the ones you get from tourist attractions. So I decided to do a museum crawl around Glasgow to see how I got on. I started out at the People's Palace, with no luck.
Then I walked into the town centre to renew my bus pass. Oh the glamour of it all! I was planning to hop on a bus to the West End, but instead decided to walk into a gale along the Clyde Walkway to the Science Centre and the Tall Ship. I was glad I did. I saw:
a man practising the trumpet under the railway bridge
the BBC building looking all moody, like
a new footbridge being built
the science centre tower (possibly not open to the public in the high winds) and the paddle steamer Waverley
the Tall Ship
a Police helicopter coming in to land
a lovely view of the University, Kelvingrove and the back of the transport museum
I nipped into the Transport Museum and Kelvingrove, picked up my pennies, and hopped on a bus home.
Hurray for Sundays!
