Glasgow and the Commonwealth Games


2014-08-01 16.07.55-1Well that’s the Commonwealth Games over, and what a time it was. I don’t think it could have gone any better.

There was a really great atmosphere throughout the city for the 10 days.

It made me proud to be a Glaswegian.

Now let's make things even better by improving life chances, and getting rid of poverty in the city.
