.'I belong to Glasgow'

Not really ' yet Scotland to date we find a most enjoyable place.
Friendly faces and haggis for breakfast! Yum,yum, quite delicious along with all the other food available.
 History of a salmon fishing town,a tobacco market, once 53 mighty shipyards declined to three at present .  A  city which has shaken off the bad press of being depressed and violent.  Made over to become a tourist and convention centre , presently sprucing itself up ,polishing many statues . For Glasgow hosts the Commonwealth  games next year. 
There thats my commercial for the city which has been looking after us the last couple of days.

I write this from the West of Scotland Oban tomorrow we catch a couple of ferries and head out to Iona.
The landscape we travelled through   was very much like  NZ hills and trees sheep.  Though the sheep here have long fat tails ,the cattle are highland cattle big horns and shaggy coats ready for the snow.

The stone fences and castles you come across it very different and you expect to see the odd dragon.

Here are some Glasgow and  Lochh Lomond


God Bless
