A wet day in Glasgow

What better way to explore Glasgow than a Hop on hop off bus.


It is raining lightly but we have decided to get better orientated using the bus and seeing the sites. So here are some pictures of some of the great buildings here starting with a walk down the main pedestrian mall to the bus stop.






I did not know the Singer sewing machine factory started in Glasgow and was doing rather well until it got bombed in WW2.








And from the bus




A local painter did a mural for Billy Connolly to celebrate his 75th birthday.







Pilot David Traill, two crew members and seven customers in the Clutha bar in Glasgow were killed when the aircraft crashed on to the roof of the building inNovember 2013.

This is that pub





















Billy Connolly started as a singer at the pub below. Th rest is history

  1. Lots of lovely stone buildings, as I recall. Well captured.
