Paisley & Glasgow; Friday, 09 November, 2007

The conference finished a little before 1, and after a brief lunch I picked up my stuff and headed towards the station. I caught the train into Glasgow and wandered over to my hotel, which took considerably longer that I thought it would, because I missed going over the correct bridge over the Clyde, and had to walk nearly a mile out of my way!

After checking in, and doing a bit of work (it was only 3pm on a work day, and I felt a bit guilty), I headed out into town to get some dinner, only to walk into the manic celebrations that were taking place in the city centre. Earlier in the day, whilst I was on a train heading into the city centre, Glasgow had been awarded the Commonwealth Games, and needless to say, the populace were a little happy about this.
