Looking in to those famous tea room windows
Well, you knew it was going to happen, didn’t you? There was never any doubt that I’d find a few interesting windows in Glasgow. The difficulty will be knowing where to stop! The Willow Tea Rooms were a treat for the eyes and other parts too.
Cream tea, anyone?
I didn’t have time for ‘the works’ but I can vouch for the whisky and sultana slice. I’d better do this in gallery form, or we’ll be here all day! Just click on any photo, as usual.
I came across all kinds of architecture, as you would in a city.
But the saddest window of all? The view from the coach, going home.
The misty rain-drenched valleys!
I hope you enjoyed my tour of Glasgow windows. I’m off to see what Dawn has in her Lingering windows challenge this week. Come join me?

Fabulous tour! I am in the Nederlands and we have had so much rain too but also so much fun! Missed you Jo!

I’m amazed you much you really manage to see and capture during the short time you where in Glasgow. I wish you had time to go inside the Princes Shopping Centre, but it’s a beautiful building outside too. Fantastic gallery again … of course.
I’m really passionate about Glasgow … will become 1/4 of a Swedish millionaire in 5 days time, so time to do a serious bucket list. *smile

Woo-hoo! 🙂 I’d have to sell the house in England and in Portugal too to have that amount. Then I’d be a proper Nomad! You’ve earned it, girl, and you’ll enjoy spending it. 🙂 Hugs, Vivi!

Jo, not so much in £ …. but converted into SEK – it gives 11 times more. Glad it wasn’t the other way around.
Yes, I have really worked hard and long for the money and there was a hick up with the payment, because I had filled in the form wrongly, so likeness me.
So over email with Julie … it’s no sorted and she has made the payment today.
Now there is a big chance that .. I will pop up in Portugal. *smile 1/4 millionaire hug …

I can see you need to return to Glasgow Jo. You did well for a short visit but it sounds like you’d relish all the Charles Rennie Mackintosh places, I stayed a week last year and was still sad to leave. Gorgeous pics too!

I have one last Rennie Mackintosh post to put up this morning, Julie, and that’s the end of the adventure for a little while. Poland next!
Many thanks for your visit and kind words. 🙂

I’ve been having some fun this weekend, Jo, and I’m heading off to Baltimore this morning for a Pirateer Festival. Ahoy, matey! I’ll hopefully be able to post some this afternoon. You know all my time is consumed with job search (fruitless!) and novel editing (and cutting – got rid of 24 pages this week!) The finish line for that novel is drawing near, finally. 🙂
