We met up with Paul and Mara on Monday for lunch in Glasgow. The city was looking well under a clear blue sky. As I have said before, like most cities, it is important to look up to appreciate the architecture both classic and modern,
This is the neo-classical rooftop statue 'Italia' created by Scottish sculptor Alexander Stoddart on a rooftop in the Italian Centre on Ingram Street in the 'Merchant City' area.
This is the view looking towards the famous equestrian statue of the Duke of Wellington located outside the Gallery of Modern Art in Royal Exchange Square.
He has been joined by a Scottie dog, one of 40 giant sculptures which have been placed around the city to raise awareness of Maggie’s cancer charity. It has of course also been given the traffic cone treatment that was *once unique to Glasgow.
