Fabulous pics Alan, I just love to view my home country through the perception of a visitor.
I attend Political Economy lectures, which was my "Arts" subject for my Law degree, in the Adam Smith building at Glasgow University.
By the way, the carved head of a boy, and the inscribed stonework above the alleyway called Paisley Close which leads to the entrance to Celtic Craft Centre commemorates the collapse in 1861 of houses which had stood on the site since around 1600. Thirty five of the occupants were killed, but as the debris was being cleared away, a young lad was heard to shout out from within the collapsed building "Heave awa' lads, I'm no deid yet". The memorial inscription above Paisley Close, which was built in place of the collapsed houses, has an anglicised interpretation of what he said - "Heave awa' chaps, I'm no' dead yet".
