Celebrating 12 parks in Scotland’s dear green place

John Cairney, a native Weegie, pays a personal tribute to 12 of Glasgow’s dear green spaces in A Walk in the Park.

It’s a reminder that there’s much more to the city than its tenements and skyscrapers.

Cairney concludes his survey of these parks with an exhortation to those people who are fixated by social media – looking down at a ‘little picture box’ when they should be looking up and out – to abandon their phones and instead, get some fresh air by taking a walk in the park.

A Walk in the Park, by John Cairney, Luath Press Ltd, £9.99.
