Through a Glass Darkly

I have never been entirely bowled over by the look of the modern extension to the Usher Hall, so I was interested to notice the effect of the tenement reflections in the corded glass.

I passed by this morning after a coffee morning with a group of cyclists who had recently been on holiday in Majorca.
I was qualified to attend as I had been with them a few years ago and was anxious to meet up again with the only cyclist who has ever had the honour of shepherding me up a mountain road with hair pin bends. Maybe it wasn't quite a Tour de France mountain stage but it felt like it to me, and I certainly don't think I could do it now........ nor do I think I would want to, which may be more to the point.
