Is Joshua Chapter 3 the one that mentions the Glasgow Underground, or the one relating to Pollokshaws West station?

……so are these priests, bearing the Ark of the Covenant, still tramping around Glasgow, or did they, too, have a destination in mind ? Most fortuitous they met you in your moment of need (Presumably they will not be lodging on the banks of the Clyde on a dull and dismal dricht day like today……….and if they are, hope you’ll take them some warm blankets and fortifying broth on your next trip to cross the water…….)

It had not occured to me that the centenary had come round so quickly. Happy memories of growing up.

Stour
Stour pron. sto-oer – the dust and debris left all over my office and my cat in an hour's time when Mr Patrick McGhee removes the most ghastly fireplace in Christendom.
