Just shows what you take for granted. I knew bout those wee blue men - aren't they everywhere ?  Maybe not but should be! Just another wee quirk of a great city.

Now I have a question to stir the pot here! If Edinburgh is our capital city why is our national team's (footie that is) home ground in Glasgow? The hallowed ground of Hampden Park!

I honestly don't know but very glad it is having stood on them terraces from a wee lassie!

Have also done the Murrayfield ones too just to show no bias! Curious!

There was me thinking it was Inverness  :D

Glasgow's my favourite Scottish city. The people are so friendly - a bit like Newcastle  ;D ;D ;D

Funny that - Newcastle and Glasgow have the same atmosphere of friendly bustle . You don't get it anywhere else. I wonder why  :-\
