Glasgow

 In Glasgow yesterday for my class, as ever a pleasant walk from bus station to university. 

Cinema in Sauchiehall street being demolished rather than refurbished. I particularly recall going to see “ Purple Rain  “ circa 1983 in here when it came out. I remember thinking that “Party like it’s 1999” seemed to refer to a date unbelievably far in the future.

Looking up at these splendid classically inspired statues l was reminded of what an interesting place Glasgow is in terms of architecture.
The military museum , also on Sauchiehall Street which I keep meaning to visit but never get round to…
Autumn begins once again…
