Glasgow Central Station by happypat

Glasgow Central Station

Glasgow Central Station is rather a special place, as you can see eye are these wonderful wooden shops. They have a lovely curved front which is very pleasing to the eye. A massive Christmas tree dominated the centre of the station & there was a choir singing as we arrived..........very festive indeed.
It really put us in the Christmas mood!

Three good things:
1. The red legged Partridge that has been visiting our bird table for a while came with a wife today.
2. An online chat with the Sky engineer resulted in us having to take advantage of our Sky insurance.....how often this last few weeks have I almost cancelled it!
3. I found a lost receipt I needed for a refund.
I love the light and the Christmas hustle and bustle of this scene!

Lovely looking scene to get you in the Christmas spirit... think the man in the foreground needs a dose of C-spirit... he looks a tad over it..

There are those beautiful shops I learnt about some years ago. It must be a huge place and difficult to take an overall photo so I like the choice you have made! I presume M&S means Marks and Spencer?

@beryl So many lights Beryl.......more & more each year I think!

@maggiemae I thought of you when I took this photo maggiemae.....I wanted to show you the shops. Therecwerecmorecofvthese beautiful buildings but as you say I couldn't get them all in. More on the other side too. M&S Marks & Spencers yes but just the food side of it. If you have never been in M&S food hall you haven't lived!
