nostalgia

I had a seminar in Glasgow today. I don't go back there very often. I lived there for 17 years. Too many memories.

I spent 8 years in a flat in the city centre, close to the railway station I had to use today. I was drawn to it today after the seminar finished, maybe because I'd seen it recently on TV. Part of that zombie film - World War Z I think - was filmed outside it.

We were living there when my son was born, so it has lots of strong memories.

It is the Blip, of course.

Well I looked into a house I once lived in
Around the time I first went on my own
When the roads were as many as the places I had dreamed of
And my friends and I were one
Now the distance is done and the search has begun
I've come to see where my beginnings have gone
