Aspects of church that is now The Stand comedy club venue,next to Webster's on The Great Western Road in (for us) unseasonal sunshine. #Glasgow #photography #SonyXZ3

Close up of the top of a sandstone point outside a church building and behind it, obscured by a light red berry laden Rowan tree is the tower of the church, out of ficus.Three spiders shadows across the sun on the church.

Seeing these about the south side always amuses melet alone in the bubble of the West End. #Glasgow #WestEnd #StreetPhotography

A torn flyer stuck where only the too quarter remains saying "Anarchist folk night" stuck atop the pink Glasgow council sign on a black coloured street bin that would have said (if you could see it all) "peoples make Glasgow cleaner".

A relatively rain-free week ahead? In Glasgow?
As Nick Abbott may well say later; "Rubbish". #Glasgow #weather

Weather forecast graphic showing up until Thursday if next week.Bar Wednesday (typically cloudy) it's showing sun and sunny intervals and....no rain

Sinister Scotrail..."If you see something that doesn't look right..."
Me: "They mean me don't they?" #photography-#Glasgow

monochrome close up, looking up a pole with flaking paint of a very weathered cctv camera pointing to our right, a tannoy speaker pointing midway-right and a junction box that various black wires from these devices enter and exit. A leaved tree or shrub can be seen in one half of the picture and sky and cloud in the other.

I'm a sucker for randomly walking the various vintage laneways I come across in #Glasgow #photography #Glasgow

Old narrow street of units and the back if houses. Legacy cobbled Lane way part obscured by shadow. Bluesky, white cloud and distant vintage tower

Love all the street art around Glasgow #Glasgow #StreetArt

Street art on flyover concrete pillar: woman's face, looking down, half lit from the right side, painted in grey scale with black shadow and background. Roadway blurred behind

Was this meant to be Lemmy from Motor head?
Seen in a charity shop earlier. #Chazza

An almost cartoon illustration of maybe Lemmy from Motor head playing his guitar with monster or zombie type arms reaching into him. Two yellow spotlights illuminate behind him. He is in black with a black hat.

"I said, I said now the plural of vinyl *is* vinyl, boy not vinyls. I said, I said that's just plain crazy talk, son" #Vinyl #FoghornLeghorn

Cartoon character Foghorn Leghorn and a dog looking exasperated at a small baby chick who is looking quite smug. Foghorn seems to be correcting the small chick.

I'm rich beyond my wildest dreams.
Perhaps not. Just found a batch of pristine condition half pence coins as issued in 1971.
These were probably part of an usused (from issue) batch brought home by my late Dad when the UK went decimal in 1971. #UK #decimal #Decimalisation #1971 #coins

Around 14 pristine copper coloured UK half pence pieces with the head of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and and image of the crown and the half pence denomination the other

Another supremely enjoyable new album that includes a cassette release is from Melbourne, Australia's Surprise Chef with their instrumental soul-funk.
