The horrible thing is (well, on top of the other obvious horrible things,) that the corner the Clutha is on is pretty empty. Stockwell Street is quite wide, and there is a large grassy area and footpath on the other side of Clyde Street before you hit the river, the road itself is a cross roads - and a very wide one at that. The Clutha is the smallest building in the vicinity and out of all that empty space the helicopter falls on it. Sheer, horrible bad luck.

There's been a weird atmosphere here over the last few days. No one can believe it's happened whilst feeling very proud of the people who risked their lives getting people out.
