I remember in 1980 feeling very proud that a British athlete, Allan Wells, had won the 100m gold medal in Moscow. At last I have seen the video of the event. I agree, Allan was and is a sporting hero, for Scots and for everyone in GB and beyond who was opposed to the idea of boycotting a major event in the USSR.

Last 200 meters 25,05 seconds. Incredible, when in this part of the race you usually lose speed, even when you intencionally try to run as fast as you can

I miss the old school River Clyde even in the 1970-1990’s. It’s the most romantic and historic city in Europe for the poor who leave and become successful people with the wonderful Glasgow that inspired them and made them who they are. No other city in the world gave this to its people. We smelled and now yearn for the aromas of the iron, textile in Paisley, tabacco, biscuit-making in mass production as children from as far south as “new” Pollok and up in the Gorbals. Anyone from Glasgow has a cheery and strong character and a diverse and fast humor with a strong desire for education and better way of life for their own children. They had an Irn Bru after work if lucky, stopped sometimes to bring a sweetie home, had fish n. Hips wrapped in lead print newspaper satiated with salt and malt vinegar that stunk up the buses. We ran free as children running -as muck. Green Celtics of the Old Firm where the Catholics team with their Catholic graveyard across street and down. The blue Rangers were their rowdy lifelong rival even now. But now, that rivaling is more romantic recalling our ice cold fingers as we watched outside into homes. Glaswegians of that time watched our parents and Grandparents work all day for the “Corporation” or factories like the famous Singer Sewing Machine Corp, McDonald’s Biscuits, and if lucky the well paid Bunnett cap jobs from in shipbuilding. Sean Connery made a wonderful movie in 1970’s about Glasgow industry highlighting the Industrial Revolution and the difference of hats. The Bunnetts were always the working glass. It cannot be viewed except on British old VCR. So I would support you getting the rights and re-releasing Sean Connery’s “The Bunnett and the Bowler” ( meaning the working class and the superiors) movie as Glaswegians, historians, inventors, scholars, sociologists, psychologists should see this documentary movie and we children would love to see it also all around the world as we now are. Thanks for posting this video. And please do consider re releasing “The Bennett and the Bowler”. I’ve been unsuccessful in being able to see this Glasgow mass factor and River Clyde working class movie.

I think the greatest joy of Glasgow is the people's amazing combination of toughness and humour, their finding humour in their toughness. In another video Billy says that he thinks it's from a combination of immigrant influences, but I see the Prydyn Gymru humour of Strathclyde and the fierce survival instincts of Gaels from the highlands whose mighty work was taken from them. They needed that combination of toughness and humour. To this day, their toughness is part of their humour and their humour is part of their toughness. Whatever fire truck they're chasing, count me in.
