A family day out in Glasgow

We had a bit of a lie in this morning after our early starts on Saturday and Sunday. After everybody was ready the five of us set off to the Transport Museum. I had asked Jamie, Ally and Davie to make sure that they were free for a family day out. We chose this venue because the forecast was for rain all day and because Jamie and Ally hadn't been to the new museum yet and they were quite interested to see how it compared to the one they visited throughout their childhood. We collected Cat near Central Station on our way. I enjoyed the visit; we spent quite a lot of time looking at the ships which has always been my favourite part. I didn't like the fact that there was a "wall of cars" which meant that you couldn't look properly inside the ones that are higher up. I do think the layout is a bit cramped and haphazard, but I'm probably biased because I was very fond of the old museum. We then went up to Glasgow University and had a walk around to see the Law faculty, before picking up some crepes from Woodlands Road on the way home. Ally asked his brothers to get him a "surprise crepe" so they got him an asparagus crepe which he liked very much. Far from being rainy all day, the afternoon was rather fine and James did some gardening while I lay in my hammock with a blanket over me and had a cosy nap. The boys all amused themselves; Ally and Cat took Easter eggs round to Jenny, Neil and Lucy while Kyle came round to see David and Jamie went for a run. We all had dinner together and then watched the concluding part of Silent Witness which was very good. And now the rain is back on, battering on the roof of the extension in a way that makes me glad that I am inside.
