Oout and aboot…

We went into the West End of Glasgow today to see the Charles Renee Mackintosh House and the Hunterian Gallery. I like the Mackintosh style  It felt like it has a Japanese influence to me  I assumed I had to be wrong because what do I know? But I wasn't too far from the mark  Pretty neat.

Right near by is the Glasgow Transportation Museum  This was pretty neat, but we ran out of time to see it all so we'll have to head back over.

We took the underground to get to the West End  The underground has no exits, however they do have a “Way Out”. I love the differences in terminology.

We had dinner at a place called, Gamba's which was excellent  Laurie had fish with a yummy ginger sauce and I had Chicken with sticky rice and a delicious sauce, the ingredients which I can't remember.

On the way back, we saw some funny nappies in a car window…



and then a familiar man on the front of a garbage truck wearing some nappies of his own!



Jargon of the day—snog:French (or Freedom if you prefer) Kissing.

Other observations…

We kept seeing store fronts called “Amusements”.  We finaly went in and checked them out to see what it was all about.  They are basically casinos or arcades.  Card games were not allowed in the one went into, but apparently some have them.  I don't know if it requires a different license or not.  something to investigate.
