If it ain't Scottish, it's Cr*p!

Me, M, My brother Renaissance Man and Bren headed North today to Scotland to stay once again with our gracious host - Mr Dundee Cake for our what's lined up to be a fabulous weekend in Scotland.

Plowing through the driving rain we crossed the border and arrived in Glasgow within 5 hours ... slow going due to the awful weather and numerous stops at the services from coffee and relaxation. Eventually the Northerly blew through and we made up some time.

Mr Dundee Cake made us all a fab Scottish dinner which we all enjoyed followed by some tasty whisky tasting and amazing Scottish caramel shortcake. Afterwards we headed downtown and of all places spent out night at the Gay community centre - which was essentially a restaurant/community centre. Good times having a laugh with the karaoke drag queen. It has to be said that ever community needs a place, and even though Jake Spears doesn't hang out here - he would enjoy it - and this place had the fringe of the community hanging and supporting one another - which was good and important.

Glasgow is super great, super working-class and raw. Had lots of laughs with random people all night and looking fwd to the weekend adventures.
