23rd April 2006, 7.20pm: Annette Street, Govanhill, Glasgow
Late, on the way out for a drink with a friend, already pushing time after an unexpected flat tyre on my bike. I see this umbrella close to home, meaning the friend must wait. My first children's umbrella that is skittering appropriately about in the street. After collecting the umbrella I just about manage to fold it shut and wedge it into my bag to head into the centre past the drunken Celtic support celebrating their league win.
