[Error: unknown template qotd]I miss Smith's [John Smith & Son, not W.H.]. I know the university branches remain, but I mean the main branch in Glasgow, in St. Vincent Street, as it was in the 1970s (it went downhill in the latter years before it closed, and service became dire). In those days it was a cave of books, full of fascinating titles everywhere you looked. I could spend hours looking at the SF section (just inside the left-hand door, that was) alone.
