Two Photos and a Website – Kelvinography

5 January, 2010 by Alistair

I will be blunt – when I started this project I was thinking more about pictures of pubs with the name Kelvin in them however you guys have surpassed yourselves.

I threw you a bone with Star Trek when I posted about this the other day however Jim took it a step further and actually got me the photo of the Starship Kelvin.

Meanwhile Stephen posted a rather nice picture of himself sitting outside his halls of residence approx 20 years ago .

A fascinating fact was submitted by none other than local legend Paul Young (the actor who fishes not the singer) who states :

The cricket Test Match that is being played between England and South Africa in Cape Town is being played at Newlands Cricket Ground, the two ends of the ground being  the Wynberg End and the Kelvin Grove End.

I even found the website which shows off their strong links with the Kelvin. The Kelvin (for those who live abroad) runs through Kelvingrove Park and is an legendary area for bizarre people to hang around bushes area of splendour.

Thanks for the input guys – I am looking forward to collecting more examples of Kelvinography.
