I had a pretty bad start of the week. It was raining pretty bad, fell down on my skateboard, and had some personal problems. This picture is from Monday and pretty much expresses my mood.

Fortunately things started to look up by Tuesday, I was feeling much better, and the weather was also much nicer, and greener, might I say.

By the end of the week I was doing just fine, and watched a bit of the marching bands going past my street (as every other week), this put me in a cheerful mood.

And here is a wee video of the (protestant) marching bands from Saturday:

Had a couple of heavy weeks so I didn’t have chance to upload the highlights last week, so here are a few pictures for the past two weeks, starting with the Mela festival in Glasgow on the 19th of June.

The following week I was buried in work, didn’t have time to go out taking photos, however, this last weekend was quite fun. I watched a friend play live at a garden party, afterwards I took a stroll through the city centre. The following picture is of a band that plays there on Saturdays, I really love it. Traditional Scottish bagpipe music with drums and madness:

It was a pretty great week I’d say, except for the fact that I’m a bit ill again, but apart from that it has been rather warm as you may appreciate in the following picture.

And this is where I wait for the bus every day after work, just me and my skateboard. (I kinda just ripped that line from Belgium’s entry into Eurovision 2010, a song by Tom Dice, if you hadn’t noticed ).

So I was practicing a few ollies on Friday and suddenly I slammed hard against the floor. Less than a couple of seconds later it started hailing. When I got back home and told my mate he said probably the sky was crying out with laughter at my fall. It was pretty funny, though ;P

In all, a pretty decent week in the end. Next week will be much more entertaining! Monday off due to bank holiday, time to have fun? Nah, maybe just rest a bit instead!

Last week was a productive one. Lots of work was done, a few things were bought, and a few places were visited. Lately I haven’t been reading that much on the bus. Instead, I’ve been taking a few pictures, trying to get good angles, good views, and interesting focuses. Kind of like the next one:

So on Saturday I went to the city centre to look for a place to scan a few documents. I found none and had to resort to taking pictures of the documents, which surprisingly came out passable enough. While I was in the city centre I stumbled upon the following group at Bucchanan street. They played awesomely well, a bagpiper and three drummers.

I also happened to be looking for a skateboard. I couldn’t find the shop I had searched for on internet, so I kept on walking until I saw a guy unpacking a new skateboard. I asked him where he got it, he told me that at Argos. I dashed to Argos and got myself a new skateboard. Provides good fun on the way to work and back. Not to mention it saves a bit of time as well.

I came back from Belgium on Tuesday and from there on I had a pretty standard week. I went to the city centre, however, yesterday afternoon, and took a few rather interesting pictures of the people from Glasgow. Enjoy the pictures!
