New Leaves

Rainbows

I finally went into Glasgow cathedral. That place is completely awesome, and it is open to the public. I expected there to be guards and such, but there weren't. You could walk around anywhere in the church and take pictures as you like. I didn't take any pictures because I was a bit overwhelmed by it when I went inside. It was just amazing.

The sky changes here so much. The clouds just move so quickly past. I was all excited about the blue sky yesterday morning. By the time I got to town, it was mostly grey. But there was a rainbow. I love rainbows. I haven't seen this many rainbows since Janet died. (step mom) When she died I saw about ten rainbows in the space of a week. Just doesn't happen that much in Alexandria. So now, whenever I see a rainbow, I think of her and it makes me smile.

I've been going for walks to explore the area in the south of Glasgow, it's nice to just walk wherever you want. I use a church steeple as a landmark so that I don't get lost. And I always find something. I found some Thistle last week. (The flower that was in Braveheart) It's 'very' thorny. (Hence the name thistle)

The plan for this weekend is to get crackin on the especially the living room. Lots to do in our version of 'this old flat' but I am excited to get working on it.

We've been hanging out with Loki from the forum, she's going to Glasgow University too, and I'm hoping to recruit her for work on 'This Old Flat'. I wasn't brave enough to try haggis.

I won't say what I'd do for a crunchy taco right about now.
