Okay, I've been promising to cover the more personal angle concerning Monday's adventures in Glasgow. Let's tell the tale in pictures...
So, there was a concert...
...and this time, I dressed for the occasion, wearing my sexiest boots, facing the world and all it had to throw at me...
...not knowing that, come kicking-out time, I would find myself halfway up THIS slope...
Forty-five degree angle + five-inch heels = a bit of a predicament, yes? About as bad as it could be, truth be told. The shortest climb was up, so that's the way I went - but the street at the top, whilst level, was basically a building-site, with no through traffic, and at the other end, nowhere to go but down. Forty-five degrees down...
Sometimes, uncomfortable decisions have to be made - and so, the boots had to come off. Challenges are what Spiritwalks are all about, even if accepting them seems to go against the whole concept.
In the end, everything worked out. I found my way back to the main street, found somewhere to grab a bit of dinner and get properly dressed again. Maybe it would've helped to know the venue better, but sometimes, your situation will, it seems, try to get the better of you.
The secret is to know when to bend, and not to break.
And so, another special date goes on the calendar... August 12th.
