Overview

Join me on an evening stroll from Hillhead Subway Station, along the Kelvin Walkway and back via the canal.

This is the same route I planned last summer, but it will be in the dark, so we're going to light it up with torches, glow sticks, and anything else you have to banish the darkness. Please dress for the weather, and remember it will get colder after dark. Bring a drink if you think you need one (a flask of tea is recommended). We may head to the curlers' rest to warm up afterwards if people fancy.
