Glasgow Family History Adventure


Another breakfast.  Off to meet another of Robyn’s relatives. Jane Duncanson is a distant relative that contacted Robyn about 5 years ago. Jane and her sister Ann Marie took us on a tour of Glasgow with a family history focus. I was the driver and we visited the Cathedral and lots of places where Robyn’s relatives had lived. Lunch and then back to Jane’s place for tea.  Great chance to meet her husband, John, and children.  Finished up about 6pm and back home to the hotel to pack before going out on our own in Glasgow.  Off to a ‘genuine tapas bar’ for a couple of plates and home.

Given all the talk of Glasgow weather it has been ok.  Cold but only a couple of showers. The Marks Hotel was in a great position and once we upgraded from the cave into a great room with a view all was fine. Even the car hire was hassle free (Enterprise). Off to London in the morning.
