Glasgow’s West End Festival is celebrating its 18th this year – happy coming of age! Almost every year, there has been a magnificent parade but I have to admit to being a fair weather friend. Given the usual Scottish summer weather, the last time I went was probably about 2005! However, Sunday was, as they say, scorchio, and the local weather report was definitely “taps aff”, so off we went. We couldn’t see much at the beginning (Botanic Gardens), but by wending our way through the back streets we arrived at the end point in Kelvingrove Park in time to get a really good view. This is a small selection of many photos, and I’ve found several other blogs with loads more. I recommend clicking on all of these!
