A post from our Community Correspondent Laura McGlinn, taking a unique and insightful perspective on our brand new Mind Waves theme of ‘home and wellbeing’.
As a child we would go to the Kelvingrove Exhibition Centre for the Ideal Home Show. Mum, dad, my little brother and I. It made for some truly happy memories in a fragile family dynamic. Losing my dad just there at Christmas, and my mum not even seven years before him, leaves you with reflection.

It’s hard to do these things when money is so tight, but I have personally have used this offer for FREE one day tickets, including child tickets places too (I just love Martin Money Saving Expert). So grab those tickets and have a great time!
This is my twist on the theme ‘home’, where a family once made ‘treasured memories’ that will stay with me forever.
I can really relate Laura as my family used yo enjoy a similar outing.
