Glasgow Parks

The glorious Mansfield Park:


(Not much of a park, but a nicer space after the efforts of its Friends.)

And I can't believe we haven't got one of the Botanic Gardens yet, so here are two contrasting offerings:
(Not sure if the first one counts as it's the walkway on the other side of the Kelvin - but the notice does say Botanic Gardens)

And another one:

Thornwood Park (#69)

(I haven't checked all the previous posts, but It hasn't got a number on the first page)


(Sorry about all the Glasgow Harbour clutter in the background.)

I have quite a few pohoto's of Victoria Park and the Botanical Gardens but don't know how to post them as I am new to hidden Glasgow. Some of the photo's are on flikr and some are just on one of my hard drives. How is it done?

There's a guide further down the board in Forum Issues or somesuch, but basically :

1) Click on your Flickr photo
2) choose the 'all sizes' option above the photo.
3) Select the appropriate size (usually Medium)
3) Copy the URL of the photo from the "2. Grab the photo's URL:" box.
4) In your HG post, click the 'Img' button.
5) paste your URL in between the tags.

Done.

#73 : Bingham’s Pond

Rain had stopped, so managed a quick trip to the revised earthy feature that is the (New) Bingham’s Pond.
Guidance boards, some waterfowl but no guy's with model boats, unlike my youth - so a bit dull now.
