The view from the office this morning - all in red...


..and, later, as the sun was coming up...


I probably have too many watches - right now only one of them works...


These on the shelves - from a visit to Tate Modern a couple of years back....


The cage remains virtually unopened...


Post sun up views...


...as I finalised the next podcast (I thought)...


Breakfast at home, more listening, then, over to my mum's to pick her up for the trip to her old chum Pat's in Paisley...

Arrival of the bent over one...



As usual, we left the ladies to it and headed to the station...

Threatening skies came to nothing...





Much fun outside Gilmour St...






To Glasgow and a fruitless search for an uncrammed coffee shop, finding only good sky...


We split up to peruse the city's offerings, me heading to Kelvinbridge on the Subway...



...to Mixed Up...


..and greeted by this wee monkey...


In for 30 minutes or so...


...and emerged with the latest bargain purchases - just £1 each...

Top notch...

A CD set of Kodály's Orchestral Works...


A cheeky wee promo from Thee Silver Mt. Zion...


A disc of, to be honest, just ok electronica from 2002...


An excellent Bach disc, wherein suites originally written for solo cello and solo flute are rearranged for solo oboe - and I do like an oboe...


Kind of disco-ey Talking Heads/LCD Soundsystem soundalikes, St Albans' own Friendly Files...


And, never heard before listening in the car on the way home and now very much liked disc, from Phoenix...


Out and back to meet up with Anne...



...at Fopp on Union St - no further purchases...


Coffees...


..and a glimpse into the future...



A wee walk around, before taking the train back to Paisley...


...noting this for future reference...




A walk around the Abbey and its environs - sights included jet trails and moon...






Pat's flat, on the other side of the green, affords good views of this...





The abbey looks a bit precarious...




A tasty tea back at Pat's and a couple of hours of chat, before heading home...

A catch up for the Exec Producer re "Strictly" and ripping and listening for me - podcast rejigging now required...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Trip to the West...
