A Canal Walk

Today has been a very hot - by Glasgow standards - day with temperatures just below 30 deg C (86 deg F) and very high humidity. I love the heat but not when it's humid and not when I'm not dressed appropriately. Anyway this morning Anna and I went for a walk along the Forth and Clyde Canal not far from Bishopbriggs. We started at The Stables, a pub, on the A803 Kirkintilloch Road where it crosses the Canal, where we had coffee. The weather was very bright and quite sunny although the photos don't seem to reflect that:

Laggan Loch

For 35 years I have regularly driven past Laggan Lochs and never been the 100 yards off the main road to see what they were like. If I saw them on our Scottish holidays when I was in my teens then I don't recall that although I do recall driving along that road desperately to get to Fort Augustus before the Banks closed on a Friday afternoon (or Saturday morning) so that we would have money for the weekend. The good old days before cash machines!
