Leiper gallery, Glasgow

This little painting is on show at The Leiper Gallery in Glasgow.
The gallery was built by William Leiper for the great art dealer
Alexander Reid who was a friend of Van Gogh. Over the years
it has been many things but last night it re-opened as a gallery.
You'll find it at 117 West George Street.

More Corrour.

This is the Corrour Railway Station Restaurant. A favourite
getaway. There are a few rooms so you get there by train, have
lunch and dinner, spend the night...breakfast and get a train home.
Brilliant chef. We were there at the weekend and it was lovely
and snowy.
