Thru west - to the Beacon

Through to Greenock today - once again at the Beacon which was gearing up for the official Royal Gala opening on Friday. All kinds of loveliness here - from the fabulous food to the most stunning view from a meeting room ever, across to the hills of Argyll & Dunbartonshire, with the ships of the Clyde passing by. Breathtaking and instantly calming.

Less wonderful was my detour via Pollockshields due to a front train/rear train, train leaving imminently confusion - 5 minute train journey in the wrong direction meant a half hour delay & two missed trains going to the right place!

Happily the Beacon, Inverclyde Council and discussions on exciting plans made up for it.
