Thanks for sharing this video. I visited the braes for the first time in June of this year to scatter my mum and dad's ashes somewhere near the point where you did your commentary from. She was originally from the east end, at Blackhill, and it was always her wish to be brought home. Although I could identify most of the city landmarks and buildings when I visited I wasn't altogether sure of the points on the horizon on the hills. Thank you for pointing them out.
Hi Steven very sorry to hear about your wee Mum mate thst's sad news :( But it is a very fitting tribute to scatter your Mum's ashes on these hills such a nice place. Im not very familiar with Glasgow's east end and only once in a blue moon do i visit that area but if you pause the film @2:39 im pretty much sure that is the Blackhill scheme in the top left-ish of the screen. Thanks for taking time out to watch and comment keep the chin up my friend and take care, peter :)
Peter !! fine you knocked off a walk before end of 2020 good views of biggest City in Scotland !! fair bit Snaw on Hills more to come soon !!brrrrr😁good tour old stompin ground 👍 All the Best for 2021 !!!!
Hi Brian hows things mate all ok? Yes it was good to get out and stretch the legs and film for a wee while for YT and yes it was a cold one still is! Happy New Year big man best wishes for 2021 mate, peter.
Who needs a bus tour when you can watch your video 😂 did the Campsies on Monday great with the snow there, can't wait to head up north as soon as the ban is lifted, all the best for 2021👍
Now that's an idea i could make a small fortune lol! Might have a wee look at the Campsies in the next few days as you say they do look great in the snow. Aye cannae wait either to head up north will be great at this time of year too. Cheers Bill all the best big man, peter.
nice video peter.ive never seen glasgow from this view before. the scots are so fortunate to have the outdoors like this on their doorstep.it certainly aint shite being scottish! i recognised parkhead from years ago when we drove past.my son liked wearing different tops and i suddenly realised where we were and olly had a rangers top on.he cried when we made him take it off! happy new year and stay safe ken
Poor wee Olly but im sure now he will well understand lol! Yes Ken you are right we can drive 20min from Glasgow in all directions and this is what you get most dont really appreciate it sadly. Well hope you and family have a great new year Ken all the best mate, peter.
Thanks Tam :) Aye you get a great view of Glasgow from up there in fact maybe the best and it was good to finally see all the lights on as well would have liked to have hung about longer but it was mega baltic man -3 i think. Happy New Year to you and family mate and all the very best for 2021. peter.
Happy new year Peter. Brilliant video as always, brought back some memories for me there. I was brought up in Castlemilk (70s/80s) then moved to Thornliebank as well. Completely forgot about the Scotland v Holland friendly at Hampden til you mentioned it. Place was buzzing! Have a brilliant 2021, hopefully will bump into you at some point. Would be good to have a gab 😆 Take care and stay safe 👍🏼
Cheers John glad you liked the film mate :) I could have extended the upload by about an hour just talking about the good old days and pointing out landmarks that i couldnt see until i went home and had a closer look at the footage never mind the football lol! That was my first international game im sure it was a warm up friendly before we went to "Spain 82" to win the world cup ha ha! Happy New Year John hope all is well ma man, peter.
Thank you! The zoom is from the Sony Cybershot DSC HX400V Camera i have three of them at the moment and one needs fixed. It is a great camera much better than the Cannon range i used in my years ago early films.
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS Interesting I thought it was a Nikon camera. Never tried a Sony camera. I used before Nikon before I changed to Fuji a view years ago - said this I never had filming in my mind.
@@StripeyHatGuy From now on i will use only Sony or Nikon(i have a Gopro 6 too) never thought about Fuji though but it is certainly a range to be considered in the future.
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS absolutely, I love the simplicity and form factor + reliability! Had my Fuji XT1 already by minus 45 degree celsius outside without any faults...ok the batteries are rubbish (even in summer) but third party ones are pretty cheap. When I read my post I assume fuji should pay me 😂
Sorry Beth just seen this comment. Aye the snow looks nice in the far distance would love to be wallowing in it at the moment but you know............(sigh) Thanks for watching and commenting, peter :)))))
Yeah the zombies come out at night Peter. Great view of the city lights I try get there next summer if we're not tier 17 by then. I get back to the killies soon Middle Duncolm or Black linn probably. ATB.
Tier 17! You know Eddie wouldnt be surprised mate but it slowly looks promising(slowly) But in these restrictions you are forced to look a wee bit closer to home and you can see what you are missing out on. But like you i am missing it cant wait to just get out back at it. All the best for tonight big man have a good one, peter.
Was up there on Tuesday for a wee walk Peter,lol.Had my drone up earlier in the day at the old Carnbooth Gun Battery and walked up to Queens view and back.😃👍
Nice one Peter! A different kind of view. Cool to see Glasgow like that though. You sure picked a chilly day for it, was blooming freezing today! Happy new year to you too!
Thanks Kris yes it is nice to have an alt look when you can see the whole area looks a lot bigger than it is.And as you say it was freezing on both days -3 hands were numb! Happy New Year Kris and take care mate, peter.
Great viewpoint that Peter and thanks for the tour of your city, a few characters down there I'm guessing haha. Glasgow reminds me of Newcastle with the river being the focal point and that oh and the football, apart from Newcastle United having no rivals sharing their home. Good to see you getting out and about , been a crap year for sure. All the very best for the new year bud. Take care. Mick.
Hi Mick yes no doubt there will be a few characters roaming about bumped into a few myself over the years very interesting! I was debating with myself should i mention the football as for reasons i dont have to explain but so far it seems fine but as in a few hours time an obscene amount of beer and whisky will be downed up here who knows...........lol! I've always thought Newcastle and Glasgow have a similar looking riverside even in this modern building era. I took my Dad down there just before lockdown as he wanted to drive over the Tyne Bridge and we had a good look. I got a bit lost in the town centre and i must had dove through about 3 bus lane's and was expecting points and fines through the door but nothing came of it(thank god). Wish you and family a happy new year Mick all the best for 2021 big man, peter.
Hi mate aye they are nice wee hills with a great view no far from my house either and perfect for theses days restrictions. All the best for next years Stevie :)
Thanks for this Peter it’s good to see some different views of the city . Could you tell me in which one of your videos it was where you pass a pond that’s changed colour due to minerals ? I’ve been looking for it but can’t remember the Munro you were doing . Cheers

Thanks for this Peter it’s good to see some different views of the city . Could you tell me in which one of your videos it was where you pass a pond that’s changed colour due to minerals ? I’ve been looking for it but can’t remember the Munro you were doing .
Cheers
Thanks Al :) The video in question is "Bynack More"
Thanks again.
