Was I there? I've been wondering what happened to my weekend.
Dunno, but I'm mighty disappointed in you. You know very well I'm a self-appointed toilet photographer and I didn't get a photie of ya chuck. Haven't even looked at the pics yet, so maybe I did one.
On the other hand you worked wonders for the national stereotype. "Ardzil hears it's his round and does a runner!". + + + Ardzil ---->
Nice to hear you finally got home.
Oh good news. That sports/tennis thingy is only 1/3 mile west of Lock 27. You get the best view of it (from the path anyway), directly across from a derelict farmhouse(?) on the north bank.

The last time I was along there that farmhouse wasn't derelict, think I'll pop along and tell the owner what you said about their house.

I stand corrected.
*stands corrected*
That is definetly a derelict farmhouse. The last time I was along that path it was still in use, had horses and everything stabled in it, and where the sports centre is was just wasteland

I was waiting to have a closer look, and when I did I thought they must be fresh air freaks, but BT wouldn't let me on this morning to enquire as to whether you had heard it was quite usual to have glass in the window frames.

.... or slates on the roof. Are there many outdoor-loving astronomers up Temple then?
Hey I discovered the River Kelvin. It's at the bit I'm most likely to end up in the canal, that's why I hadn't spotted it before....well, that and the nude sunbathers.
Where are you off to now?

Well done, they have been searching for it ever since the great Glasgow river thefts of 1923.

Wumbeevil I just heard on the news that somebody died after the car they were in ended up going into the canal somewhere in Glasgow. You be careful when you're going along it.

Can't get away from the things anywhere. It looked like the Maryhill (sic) Locks . Haven't been able to cycle this week. 12 hour days make me a likely candidate to end up in the canal.
Should get the pics up this weekend if any turn out and I'm sober.....maybe next weekend then
Canal

Yes it was the Maryhill Locks, looks like she meant to do it, there's no way you could drive up to the canal by accident at that point.
12 hour shifts, have you been taking work advice from B-17?
Feel free to give me advance warning of any photos I might not want to see.
Canal

Advance Warning
Strangely enough, the only pic of you had a pure white face, so I left it out. That's a you owe me.
