If I wanted to have a proper wash in Glasgow after a week's walking,
can anyone suggest where might hire me a shower somewhere between
the various railway stations? I am happy to pay, but object to paying
for a full night's accomodation.

Regards,
Nick Maclaren.

I am sure there are showers available in Glasgow Central Station toilets.

just spray your armpits with deodorant... otherwise known as a 'glasgow
shower'... or a 'govan wash'

Try the local swimming baths. The rules always say "Shower before
entering the water". Nowt like being law abiding for once. You have to
pay for a swim.

You can certainly have a shower at Edinburgh Waverly station, so I'd
guess that Glasgow Central would offer similar (£2 or so, incl fresh
towel and soap) facilities.

You can at Kings Cross, too. That definitely sounds like the best
solution.

According to the following pages, both Glasgow Queen Street and
Glasgow Central
have showers:

A note says that the Glasgow Central showers are "located within the
superloos",
which doesn't sound too good...
