I love our Blockbuster movie rental thing. Nothing is better than finding three DVDs in your post! So many nice movies!
To make good use of the nice weather outside, Crocky and I went to the movies yesterday. It's really a shame, Crocky's hayfever is acting up again and since there is grass everywhere, it's an ordeal for her to spend time outside. I wish the hayfever relief tablets would do their job properly so we could go hiking!
Sunshine makes it worse, so it our picnic in the Kelvingrove Park had to be rather short. To do something with the day, we walked down to the lovely cinema on the other side of the Clyde and watched Hard Candy. Woooooow. What a movie.
We had a lovely walk home through dark Glasgow. And Julez is right, it is scary out there. We had to cross a large, empty parking lot where a gang of drunken youths were hanging around. They were acting strange, obviously drunk and closer to us than I would have liked. I was a bit scared of them, up until the point when one of them broke down with loud, chest racking sobs and the others had to comfort him. Phew, safe.
There were a lot of strange folk around today, though, starting with a man who came up to us in the park and asked if we could give him a packet of hankies because a group of youngsters had just smacked him and given him a nosebleed. Ok, Kelvingrove Park is not as nice as I always thought. Well - nor is the inner city, there were more ladies of negotiable affection around than I have seen during the whole year here, and even the odd couple shagging away in a doorway.
What is summer doing to this city?
