_41077807_mclellan_kilmarn_pa203.jpg You'll never guess where I'm going tomorrow? Polmont Young Offenders Institute! A few years ago I did a "Johnny Cash", I took my guitar and sang in the prison. A riot nearly broke out. I think the song lyrics were an invitation to violence. Anyway thought I'd get you thinking about prisons, but before you do I hope you enjoy this clip.

[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/brDmYnZDUMc" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /] Today is Remembrance Sunday I think it is one of the most important services in the church calendar.

It's just turned 1.00pm and in the next 30 minutes Willie and I will be heading for the Airport. Thanks for the info James about the flights.

The city links seemingly have not been affected. So we should arrive home as planned. I was so good to receive your comments over the past week and I felt that many of you...

Rainy Season

willie-albert.jpg Its the Monsoon season. Today the place looks like a miserable rainy Glasgow Sunday at the Barras. I woke up this morning no feeling too good. I think the Chinese I had last night didn't agree with me. Captain Thacker arrived on time at 7.30am to take us to Mount Zion Church. This is the church that John attends.
