Lookin` for a fountain, A Doulton Fountain

I spy through the gloom! Its the Peoples Palace, cumone Elspeth n`Michael gonnay cum hame, surely all must be forgiven by now!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know! I`m just an old sentimentalist!

A tree being held back by the stalwart fence around the peoples palace, and just as well too!, we dont`t want that sort of riff-raff clogging up our museums, unless its conceptual of course and filled with irony!

Conceptual red path and tree composition next to peoples palace.

I knew it had been moved and figured it had to be at the peoples palace.
It had lain in dissaray for years at the triumphal entrance to the Green.
It had been slowly but shurely chibbed by us glaswegians to within a breath of its very existence. But lets face it, if its still here how could it possibly be a thing of beauty! The attitude permeates everything, Glasgow and Scotland keep their pedestals empty.
Need an architect for a parliament, a glass artist for a light house, a mosicaist for an art gallery, a shop fitter for a pub, there can`t possibly be anyone good enough up here.
Rant over!!!!!

Finally restored and relocated for its own safety the Magnificiant Doulton Fountain
