The Buchanan Galleries is a mega-sized shopping centre found in Glasgow at the top of Buchanan Street. You can get through here to get access to the bus station through John Lewis and I think it's a wonderfully designed shopping centre. It's got a huge range of shops here including a food court and I think this place is great, it's also got free public toilets to meaning even if you're in the area there's the men's toilet and women's toilets and disabled toilets that can be accessed via a RADAR key. It can be quite busy at the weekends but it's quiet during the weekday, and I loved exploring all the local sales here, there isn't many individual businesses it is mostly retail chains such as John Lewis and Boots but it's very bright and clean with plenty of places to sit. There is also an Amazon locker here too with vending machines so you can pick up your products on the go which I thought was a nice touch.

Would have been five stars, but for the fact that they would not allow me to plug in my Samsung USB fast adaptive smartphone charger when my device battery has gone flat and my device was dead. I felt so embarrassed, being approached directly by security and loudly asked to move on (he wasn't asking me to leave, just move away from the power socket). The security guard was polite - I'll give him that - and even helpfully pointing out there was a street defibrillator nearby that had a wireless charging point built in. However, other indoor shopping centres allow the charging of your mobile phone in their food court area! Sadly, since I use my phone for tap & pay transactions, it meant I couldn't buy anything, and so they lost out on my custom! Now, I was carrying cash. I prefer to use cash. I hate the very idea of the cashless society, but can and will use contactless for some transactions, typically when I can earn reward points from my financal provider(s). But that wouldn't serve the point I was deliberately trying to make, now, would it 😂?! I have principles!
