Firebird
Top Secret File
Codename "ashestoashes"
Put down your weapon - we're all friends here.
Psst!... our VERY-close-second favourite place...
for a walk and a look at arty-farty stuff before or after chilling out here is...
and we love it because the tower of the main Glasgow University building dominates the skyline from here, and that's where the amazing Hunterian Museum is.
The walk there will do you good, too! Inside are thousands of pieces, with loads of information to help everyone follow what they are.
So it'll be good for your brain as well. Don't forget your camera, because the views and the university buildings just love having their photos taken.
[From Firebird, walk along Kelvin Way through the park, and turn left at the end. The main gate to the university is at the top of the hill on the left. The Hunterian is sign-posted from there. Enjoy.]
... so do you want to know what's keeping those 'in-the-know' folks talking about Firebird?
It's... that I think the gorilla is staring at me! You'll know what I mean when you visit.
There's a striking painting of a large mustard coloured ape on the wall.
He's friendly, and he's keeping a protective watch over the punters in his home!
Enjoy!
Now... don't tell anyone else. And DO NOT reveal this Firebird top secret file and password.
We'll know.... And we'll track you down and jump in a big puddle beside you!

Sssh!... our VERY top place...
for a walk and a look at arty-farty stuff before or after chilling out here is...
and we love it because you can see it from here, and it would be a shame to deny yourself the chance to admire some of the great pieces inside.
Your kids might like to see the stuffed elephant and giraffe, or the spitfire gliding down from the ceiling...
And you'll love Dali's amazing painting 'Christ Of St John Of The Cross'.
[No directions are needed. Saunter over to the huge red sandstone building on the edge of the park, and you're there.]
