Made it to Cumnock, south of Glasgow, as planned although quite painful as right knee playing up, hopefully better tomorrow (more drugs!) or may need to rest it a day.
Stopped at Clydebank shopping centre this morning to get some Nurofen gel in Boots and I was clearly an unusual sight in these parts - all were staring, particularly the males - don't think they approved of the lycra... I made a hasty exit, and kept going on to Glasgow (along the Forth & Clyde Canal, with its interesting industrial heritage) and then headed south - decided not to stop for lunch particularly when I saw the signposts for the Gorbals and the looks I was getting generally throughout the city!
Didn't like the look of the planned accommodation, so just kept cycling and found a very nice relaxed hotel down the road instead - being a bit more selective these days!
