Love Glasgow! Best City in the UK!

This is the only photo I took, while Neil and myself were in Glasgow today! I can’t believe how much the travelator between Buchanan Street subway station and Queen Street railway station has changed!

My first EVER wetsuit!

Yep, I’ve still got my first ever wetsuit, which is a O’Neill Hammer Spring Suit. Which I got from the O’Neill shop in Buchanan Galleries, in Glasgow. The shop, has long gone. But the memories of getting it have not! Till this day, it’s the only wetsuit, I’ve got it person! All the others, I’ve got on-line! I still remember picking it up and going to till to pay for it!

If it had not been for that wetsuit, then my now “famous” Wetsuitlads website, may never have started!

More photos of myself wearing the O’Neill Hammer Spring Suit can be found at www.gordon-valentine.com/zenphoto/page/search/tags/”O’Neill+Hammer+Spring+Suit”/

My favourite bit of the Commonwealth Games Opening Ceremony

While in Cyprus we got chatting about our favourite bits from the Glasgow 2014, Commonwealth Games Opening Ceremony.

I love the bit filmed in George Square, when Amy MacDonald sings – Rhythm of my Heart.
