The new Nelson Mandela statue will be unveiled this afternoon, and there's part of me wondering, what with Glasgow being Glasgow, whether when the cover's finally remove, it will reveal that someone has already snuck a road cone onto his head!

The Great Scottish Run half marathon getting ready to get under way on St Vincent Street in Glasgow. I think this is my fifth one, and No. 70 of my consecutive series monthly half marathons around the city. Why? Good question!

This morning's sunshine on Kelvin Way in the West End of Glasgow.

While work to refurbishment it continues, you can still get glimpses of how it will look once its finished, with the autumnnal colours of the trees providing the perfect counterpoint for the statues in the foreground and the architecture behind them. Personally, I love it!

Autumn is gradually arriving in Queen's Park on the Southside of Glasgow. I reckon another week or so, and we'll hit peak autumnal colours.

The 170 year old Argyle Street Ash Tree in the West End of Glasgow looking great today as the sun spills over the top of the neighbouring tenements and illuminates its crown.

Built in the 1880s, it was designed in a Renaissance style by Bruce and Hay.

This morning's sunshine and blue skies made for perfect conditions for vieiwing (and photographing) Glasgow's amazing architecture, like the former Ogg Brothers Department Store at Paisley Road Toll.

Finally, the seating and tables help give it a very European feel. As long as the rest of it matches this part, it's going to be a real asset for the city (or at least that's my opinion).

Getting rid of the road has opened up the space and really shows off the surrounding architecture to its full potential. The newly planted ginkgo trees will look spectacular when their leave turn golden as the autumn progresses.

I went in to central Glasgow this morning to check out the newly re-opened western section of the re-vamped George Square and I have to say I love it.
