Cherry Picking

If you ever wondered whatever happened to the elaborate headgear once worn by the sainted Carmen Miranda...



This fruity feature is to be found, suitably enough, on top of what used to be Glasgow's fruit market. Of course, the old fruit market is long gone, and has now been replaced by The Old Fruitmarket. Which means the fruit stalls and barrows have been supplanted by wine bars and restaurants. Still, it's enlivened a part of the city that was in danger of going down hill. And it looks awfully pretty at night.
