Coach plunges into Scottish loch, many feared drowned (Rousse)
As the coach left the outskirts of Glasgow, I tested the reclining bed that I had discovered next to the window. It was very versatile, with several options for its positioning. The traffic had thinned out by the time we … Continue reading
Trapped in a Glasgow museum (Rousse)
The starting point for access to the path up the mountain was under a door of a Glasgow museum. From here you accessed a tunnel. This eventually emerged in the open air on a steep mountain track. I had forgotten … Continue reading

A wandering whiteboard and a late PhD submission (Rousse)

From garden wall antics in North Berwick to ballroom dancing at Glasgow Queen Street (Rousse)
