Walking Along The Clyde
Is there any other river that is commonly used as a person’s name? I’ve never heard of anybody called Mississippi, Amazon, Nile or Rhine. Not even a child of a celebrity!
I walked along the river to Glasgow Green from Central station.
As with many cities, it has a varied collection of bridges.
It was also extraordinarily sunny. A couple of people were sunbathing by the river. Later in the day, I saw a young lady walking around the city centre wearing a mini skirt, high-heeled sandals and a small bikini top. The weather was just that good!
Note the pictures of the derelict Ladies Waiting Room. There’a a lot more about it here in a blog called Lost Womyn’s Space.
I was also impressed by the City Union Bridge and St. Enoch Viaduct, which could in future be part of Glasgow Crossrail.




















Any other name of river used as a forename…yes….Don. (as in Sheffield)

Or as in Quiet flows the Don.
But you could disqualify Don as it’s short for Donald!

There’s also Tyne, as in Tyne Daley! But none are as commonly used as Clyde!
