Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Buchanan Street is known as 'The Style Mile' as it is filled with top fashion label stores and this woman, flattered by my photography with a post-shot smile, is dressed in style too. Enjoy!
-5º Celcius in fact…it’s a good job I’d just had a brisk walk to the Osmaston Sawmill, it got my blood pumping faster than the last time I had a saucy dream about Sandra Bullock

I am glad I am not a snowman! With this polar vortex moving through it would be a terrible time for anyone to be without heat, but that is exactly what happened at my house today when I got up this morning! I checked the weather app on my phone and it said it was -24 C feeling like -35 C outside. Trying to stay calm and cool (no pun intended) I immediately called and left a voicemail message to a heating company for them to please come and check my furnace. The fella called me back and he made it over by 10 am. It turned out our furnace was working fine but there was no gas being supplied to it from the outside so that ended up being a problem with the utility company. I called them and they were out within a couple of hours and fixed the issue. I am not sure what it was they replaced on the gas meter to my house but I am thinking it was the regulator. They told my son who was here to meet the technicians but he couldn't remember what it was called. After the end of my work day I was thankful to come home to a heated house and appreciative to those that helped us today to make that happen. While I was on my drive to work this morning I was trying to think positively that it would be an easy fix and felt sad for those folks who are homeless during this freezing weather. I thought, well I am fortunate to have a house to come home to and if I had to walk around the house with a winter hat and jacket on to stay warm then that is just what I'd have to do. Thankfully it didn't come down to that it all really made me think about how fortunate I am.
Thanks so much for your visit! Hope you all had a good day and are staying warm and comfortable.
With the temperatures hovering around the freezing mark, 66743 pulls forward from the loaders with the 6S45 0908 North Blyth to Fort William loaded aluminia. In the summer months this locomotive is usually allocated to Royal Scotsman duties but during the winter rather less glamorous, but much more interesting, work is undertaken.
