Time to head back, west along the river side.
I get a misty view of The Gorbals, Donald MacBean once asked me what a Gorbal was, I am not misty eyed about a tower block though the mist romances it!
Heres an unusal site, a life ring in place, like the Doulton fountain people are always throwing these into the river Clyde for sport.
Well I suppose its better than football violence, yes it does still go on, or mugging old women, and yes that still goes on too!
Yes we are becoming more civilised and kinder and less racist and even more cultured, but lets face it if you fall into the river these days the only thing that may save you is this
or this
and with George Parsonage retiring and no one replacing him as yet, I think the second option may be the only one in future.
But a word of caution, they are like the busses, you can wait for one all day and then theres a whole flock of them.
A bit of Gothic treescape
and the big stump, the boathouse looms in the distance!
Big Stump detail, will it grow again?
