Today - I am taking it easy and spending my last day for a while with my sister shopping in Glasgow. The whole family is heading up with Luke Skyetrekker also joining us...
We park at the Buchanan Galleries and then head out for some Lunch. I manage to cap off my trip to Scotland with a haggis and neeps Crepe in John Lewis. It;s delicious....
During lunch Mowgli and The Cadet join us, and we get ready to hit the shops. I manage to get two pairs of converse for 20 quid a pop:
After this we generally wander about and have a good relaxing session doing very little around the centre of Glasgow. We used to do this regularly on free afternoons when we were students... it's a great way to waste some time with some mates and I miss it..
I managed to lose my family tartan Scarf, and need to buy a new one, so we head into a tourist shop on buchanan street, which is a new experience for me. This should have been a stop over as students cos it's quite good fun watch Mowgli quote braveheart and don different glengarry hats in order to impress two polish tourists:
Next... it's off to Virgin Megastore to buy some Rawk!!! T-shirts.... If I have to go to the gym, I refuse to wear nike and lots of sporty colours, instead I'm opting for some obscure grunge T-Shirts and the best of Rock-Chique-Cheese:
Eventually, I'd like to build up to really obscure stuff where I hope that someone will ask me what "Kill Rock Stars" means or who "Mother Love Bone" were.... but until I either scour the internet, or get a screen printing set, I'll have to make do with some mainstream stuff from Virgin.
We are meeting my parents for an early dinner, but before we do so... I take Luke into Miso to see Nina's paintings. We sit down and have a coffee, before heading into the Indian restaurant next door to meet my parents, sister and brother..
It;s a pretty good meal. British Curry just isn't done in Europe:
My family head home and Luke, Mowgli and I head off to Mowgli's to pick up his V-Ball stuff before taking him to Kelvinhall:
We then go and visit Nina to say cheerio before I go back tomorrow.
Once we're back home I pack a bag quickly before heading for an early night......
