Glasgow School of Art

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing on the news when they were reporting that once again there had been a fire at the Glasgow School of Art. Only last week my friends Louise and Jean had lent me their book on the famous Scottish Architect and Designer, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and we were talking about how tragic it was that it had almost been destroyed in the last fire. Hard to believe that it is purely a coincidence!!

In 2003 I did the cabinetmaking course at TAFE and this was when I was introduced to the famous Architect. I fell in love with his work and it has been on my “bucket list” ever since to make sure that I visit many of his iconic masterpieces if I ever get to visit Scotland again.
