Over the moon

The STV film website, mentioned previously, is really good - it's got tons of short films about different aspects of Scottish life - from whole episodes of Tom Weir adventuring about in his little red bobble hat, to histories of politics in Scotland, to guides on how to put on your kilt properly.

We did a little search for Glasgow related items and found, a couple more films about the Clyde regeneration, a film about Glasgow Parks and a short film about the renowned guitar maker Jimmy Moon of Moon guitars whose workshop is down a lane off Pollokshaws Road.

Have a look at their website and check out all the famous bands and artists who have visted the Southside to buy a new guitar. Its great that there is such a fine specialist in Glasgow and even more interesting for me as I actually look out my back window onto Moon guitars shop and have been meaning to go in for a visit since I moved back to the Southside a few years ago. In the summer its great as I can hear the sound of lovely acoutic music drifting in the open window. (Occaisonally I also enjoy the sound of someone skillfuly practising bagpipes from somewhere nearby. Anyone know where its coming from?)
