The Old Swinger swing bridge is located on the Glasgow branch of the Forth and Clyde Canal at North Canal Bank Street in Glasgow, Scotland, UK.
This is a decommissioned single-track swing bridge that once carried the Port Dundas Branch (Caledonian Railway) over the Forth and Clyde Canal from north Port Dundas Mid Wharf over the canal to North Spiers Wharf. The span swung from its south end.
There was a small goods shed on the north wharf Port Dundas Goods [CR] immediately to the north that was rail served.
There was a short siding at the southeast end of the bridge, approached from the southeast and on the north side of the line. This was to serve an oil store.
The bridge remained closed after falling into disuse as the canal was also out of use. It is now fixed open, having been restored in the 2000s.
The base of a signal post remains nearby on the north bank of the canal.
A double lifting road bridge is just to the east. Nearby is a beached barge that was recovered from the basin.

According to a Pew Research Center survey, about one-third of US adults—including more than half of women ages 18 to 49—have tattoos. Over the past 20 years, there has been a significant increase in these numbers: in 2003, 16% of US adults and 21% of adults in 2012 reported having at least one tattoo.
Is the recent headline making you anxious? Then you need to keep reading.
Which study, are they referring to? To what extent should you be concerned? Together, let's get through it. It's impossible to deny that this issue is much more complex than what the headlines portray.
Tattoos May Raise Your Chance of Lymphoma, According to a Study (OnlyMyHealth)
According to a study, getting inked increases your risk of developing cancer (NDTV).
Inky waters: A study found that tattoos raise the risk of lymphoma by more than 20%. (Local12.com)
A startling study has found that tattoos can raise your risk of cancer by 20%. (Fox News)
Why are scientists looking into a potential connection between lymphoma and tattoos?
According to statistics, approximately 90,000 new cases of lymphoma are identified each year, making it one of the most common forms of cancer. Lymphoma is a type of cancer that develops in the lymphatic system, a network of vessels and organs that help to protect the body from infection. There are several different types of lymphoma, each with its own unique characteristics and treatment options.
Among the risk factors for it are:
People are getting older.
Specific illnesses (such as hepatitis C, HIV, and Epstein-Barr virus).
Exposure to specific substances (like pesticides or benzene, perhaps).
Radiation exposure (from nuclear reactor accidents or after radiation therapy) and a family history of lymphoma.
Having immune system disorders, some immunological diseases (such as celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, or Sjogren's disease).

My parcel arrived on Saturday, and when I opened it, I was so happy. I have shopped for different items in the Uoozee online store, and they all looked good and caused a stare.
When I saw the dress, I wasn’t sure about the fit. I always want my dresses to look extremely flattering. This black loose sleeveless solid-color split-side shawl collar maxi dress turned out to be more stunning than I expected. The shawl collar that flows to the back is something I like; it adds a little fun flare to the dress. I added red lipstick, and it did the trick. This dress is absolutely lovely. Guess how much it cost? I am waiting...
Well, you were wrong. It was only

Red heels with gold detail: New look
Matte Golden Color Irregular Geometric Twisted Dangle Drop Earrings: Temu £0.78
Let me give you a little background on this outfit. I wanted to look both simple and stylish, which is why I chose to wear my H&M tank top and Zara baggy jeans. I wanted to wear sneakers, but I was like, 'Hold on, girl. ' Don't you see those girls on Instagram looking all good by stepping up their look with pointed heels or stilettos? I said to myself, baby girl, you are not missing out on an opportunity to wear heels with jeans, which I rarely do, and still feel comfortable and look fabulous.
When I wore the heels, I knew this was the outfit that was going to cause a lot of attention, and with my Ghana-waved braids, I was all set to go.
I went for a private dinner for two, and then we ended up walking the streets of Glasgow before going in October to dance the night away. Well, I didn't dance, but I had a drink and moved my body while enjoying the music.
Let's talk about getting the right tank top that fits you.
In my small world of experience, I would advise you to get your size. If you are a size small, get a size small; that way, it will fit your body just as it is. If you get a size bigger, the styling sense for pairing with baggy jeans won't give as much of a fashion stamp as it would when wearing a tank top in your size.
Jeans are one of the best go-tos for most fashionable ladies. What makes your jeans even more fashionable is your top and sometimes your shoes. In my case, I must say that my JW Pei bag elevated this outfit. At night, the crystals in my bag shone bright like a diamond. This is the best bag for a night out.
My glasses are from Firmoo. I must say their glasses are so durable. I have had these glasses for more than 5 years and they are still one of my best. Use the code: jacob50 for 50% off code.
I got the gold loops from Primark, I think. Here are some options:
Sometimes all we need is a pair of good jeans and a tank top. Please let me know your thoughts on this outfit. Would you wear this on a date?
If you have ever seen or used a Jw Pei bag, you will comprehend the hype. I personally adore their bags and would like to own more bags from the brand.
I have decided to add more glamour and glitz to my wardrobe. I discovered this when I purchased a silver heel with glitz, and I adored it. When I styled it with my black abacus crystal bag, I thought to myself, "This woman is fierce, and she needs to add more silver glitter and crystals to her wardrobe." The crystals bring your whole outfit to life and add a touch of glamour and girly flair.
Have you ever gotten dressed up for a night out and decided to show off your crystal bag under the lights? It's absolutely stunning, and so today I'll be sharing the best crystal bags and jwpei bags in general for a night out. Don't forget to add those long dangling crystal earrings; they also contribute to the magic.
Crystal bags add a touch of glamour and elegance to any outfit, making them perfect for special occasions and evening events.
A silver bag offers a sleek and versatile accessory that effortlessly elevates any ensemble with its chic, metallic shine.
Have you started thinking sustainability yet? It is important to note that traveling sustainably is a way to reduce our impact on climate change.
Sustainable travel is not a myth or a trend to identify with, but, a practice that starts by making smarter choices in every aspect of the trip. When planning your travel and booking transport and accommodation, you need to think sustainably. Even airlines are investing in sustainable aviation fuels that reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Going on vacation is a great time to explore, unwind, and refresh, especially when taking a break from work. Many people look forward to taking vacations as part of their reward. The tourism industry is changing a lot these days! So many places are really trying hard to be more eco-friendly and offer sustainable services.
If you are planning a visit to Toronto, that is a great idea because Toronto features lots of tourist attractions like the CN Tower, CASA Loma, Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto Zoo, Toronto Island, etc. There are convenient flight options available for you when booking flights to Toronto. Canadian Affair operates direct flights to Toronto all year round, making it easier for travelers to reach this vibrant city.
But the question is, how can you plan sustainable travel? Every positive step we take towards sustainability when traveling preserves our environment, saves resources, and reflects positively in local communities.
During graduation, we stopped at the Hilton Aberdeen TECA for a meal, and I must say, they did not disappoint. The fresh soup, pizza bread, and fries were all delicious. I enjoyed it so much that when the food at the Aloft Aberdeen TECA was not as good, my friend said, "Now you see the difference between the two hotels. That's why Hilton is more expensive." We laughed it off and continued to enjoy our trip.
There isn't much to say about this post, other than the fact that we stopped here for a quick meal with the graduate's friends. That's why I don't have much to say about this place, even though I would have preferred to stay here because the food was better and the decor was more modern and photogenic.
The hotel decor was absolutely stunning. Standing between those artworks on the wall made me feel like the centerpiece, as I am an art created by God Almighty. I stood out and gave it the beauty it deserves. I loved these photos from the moment they were taken, and I enjoyed every minute spent there. I felt so relaxed and enjoyed my meal with the great view while getting to know my new friend, whom I just met at the graduation. I will be talking about my new friend soon.
If you have been following my blog, you are probably aware that this is the second time I have worn this dress. I have also mentioned that it is from Zara and was one of my best purchases last summer. My bag details here.
Did I mention that it was a stone's throw from the Aloft Aberdeen TECA hotel? For now, what do you think about the decor at the Hilton Aberdeen TECA?
During the short time I spent in Aberdeen for Yinka's graduation trip, I was able to visit a few places, but I wish I had explored more because, in my opinion, the housing setting in Aberdeen is superior to that of Glasgow. Aberdeen has much more green space, which gives it a fresh, relaxed atmosphere that I find more enjoyable than the hustle and bustle of Glasgow.
One of the highlights of our trip was our visit to the Aberdeen Sports Village Aquatic Center. I felt so relaxed in this place watching people swim and practice different sports. To give you more insight about this place, it is home to an Olympic-sized training pool, a recreational pool, and a diving well. The 50-meter, 10-lane pool is perfect for competitive swimmers, while the 25-meter pool with a full-floating floor is ideal for those who want to learn how to swim or simply enjoy a leisurely swim. The diving well has springboards and platforms up to 10 meters high, so you can experience the thrill of diving.
- Observe the aquatic action or cheer on your favorite athletes from our 600-seat spectator area.
- The Sauna & Steam Room, or Exercise Studio are ideal places to unwind after a rigorous workout.
- Our on-site cafe offers a variety of dining options to satisfy your hunger.

I went to the Game of Thrones Studio Tour two years ago with my friend. At that point, I hadn't been in the UK long. I needed a vacation and wanted to see each other since it had been a while since we last met. I had a great time on that trip, and we got to see some places that I never got to share on my blog. I procrastinated, and since the photos were with my friend, it took her a while to send them because she was probably busy or kept forgetting. Well, I have had the photos for a while on my blog draft, and I have decided to share them with you all today.
The Game of Thrones studio in Belfast, Ireland, is a well-designed one. The sets look so realistic, and if you're a fan of the American fantasy television drama, you'll appreciate the whole process even more than I did, because I had never seen the show but visited the studio. How ridiculous is that? Hahaha.
We obtained a ticket, and the bus transported us to the museum. The location is convenient because the bus schedule is frequent. It was a thrilling trip, I must admit.
One interesting aspect is that you get to see the materials used in the costume process and also hear in-house stories about how some of the scenes came to life.
One of the most exciting aspects was meeting one of the film's cast members, who was a delight to meet.
Exploring JW Pei Crystal Purses and the Silver Trend
Has anyone else noticed that people are really into silver lately? My friends and I all had a touch of silver in our outfits for graduation, and it wasn't even planned. I also noticed a lot of other people wearing silver jewelry and accessories. I have used this bag twice, and it has been nothing but stunning and elegant. The rhinestones are on fire.
If you are looking for lovely bag, then consider adding a crystal purse to your collection to instantly upgrade it, whether it's for a formal gathering or an exciting night out. This sparkling purse may give a sophisticated touch to even the most basic outfit or add even more sparkle to one that already exudes glitz.
JW Pei purses are great since they are trendy and not boring, which is why they are so popular among the fashion elite. They pretty much offer any color imaginable, so it doesn't matter what you prefer.
JW Pei bags are the understated purses you have seen all over Vogue and on celebs but most likely not even known about since there is no brand branding visible. The best part is that They are still rather fashionable and forward, but also rather reasonably priced.
You may have seen the bags that Gigi, Emily Ratajkowski, Megan Fox, and others are carrying. If you're searching for a fashionable, affordable, and eco-friendly bag, read on for a complete JW Pei review.
These stunning items are all available for under $100, and there are many more on sale!
My bag, the JW PEI Abacus Artificial Crystal Mini Top Handle, elevates the bow-shaped bag trend to new heights with its one-of-a-kind ring-handle detail.
I would like to commend the designers of this bag for one thing in particular. Most items with stones and studs that I own start to fall off after a while, and some even fall off almost immediately after I use them for the first time. However, this JW Pei crystal mini bag is incredibly durable. Not a single crystal has fallen off, even though I have handled it like I would any other bag I own. I will definitely be shopping from this brand more in the future because of its durability.
I'm going to tell you a true story. I went to Aberdeen for a friend's graduation and I wore my bag. At the end of our trip, a friend of mine was holding my bag and forgot to drop it off. She traveled with it to another country, but then sent it back to me when we both realized she had it. She sent it back, and I got it on Friday in a well-packaged box. My bag is back home now!
Let me know what you think about my bag.
