Wee dod 'o' cultyer

Decided to pop down to Glasgow Museum and Art Gallery for a bit of art and culture.

Out of all the museums that I ever visited Glasgow's is by far the best not only for what's on display but the fact that it's welcoming unlike many of the pretentious ones in the likes of Edinburgh and as it's owned by the people of Glasgow it's free.


Today was even better as, for the first time ever since I've been going here over the years, the pipe organ was actually being played.

I don't know many museums other than the London National History Museum where everyone no matter what their age or background enjoys wandering around and reading about the displays.

Curiously for a museum it's always best to visit this one when the weather is nice as it's set on the river Kelvin where the river walkway passes right through the grounds and along the impressive front entrance, or rear depending on what local story you believe and makes a lovely walk in the sun.
