City of Glasgow by Air – Aerial Demo Vol. 4 (by Aerial Focus)

My girlfriend h–na discovered this video while watching videos on the Apple TV, and she considered it interesting enough to play it again for me. I was happy she did. 🙂

Nice aerial view of Glasgow, although mostly the area right next to the river Clyde. Quite some recognisable sights — albeit a from an unusual perspective — and you can even catch a glimpse of the Euro Hostels building, where we’ll be staying during our next trip!

Clyde Clock

Waiting for a bus so here’s a wee pic I just took of the Clyde Clock, it is an odd specimen; a stainless steel statue of a running pair of legs, with a cube clock as a body. Aptly positioned outside Buchanan Bus Station, it was created by Glasgow artist George Wyllie.

One of the last things I see of Glasgow each time I leave the city, since the curtains on the Megabus sleeper back to London, are usually shut by the time I get on…
