I went Xmas shopping during my recent visit to Glasgow in Argyle Street. This place has to be the sh1t IMO

I got me some real leather bargains down there I saved many a Krona!!  Who needs shopping malls with this pile of junk on the doorstep

It was not all smooth shopping as the lady at the Iceland Air check in desk at the airport on my way back home took some convincing that the 3 seater sofa didn't contain BSE or Foot & Mouth!!   I promised her I wouldn't eat it so she was happy and let it go in the aircraft hold.  

I also got some nice slacks from the shop on the far left of the photo called Des of the Trongate. I love you Des, you make me a very trendy man back home.

Yes James that is the place I went and the service was special as I have a long inside leg but lady Des had a very warm hand for the inside measurement.
I think Mr Des behind the counter was not very happy at business that day as he had a grumpy face the whole time I was doing the shopping but Mrs Des is very cheeky and has nice perfume.

I got 6 pairs of Sta-Press for £20  Bargain!  these cost almost a weeks pay each back home

I win  

A merry Christmas to you all form Lesjaskog

Thanking you this year on UG

Is the fare lower if your going from 11a - since you have to walk half the way to your destination

I'll look into that.... but I just realised that it was RAW processing so it automatically creates a small file with the changes done allowing me to apply the same changes to another image
