angels over Glasgow

I love this Glasgow building at an intersection, (or fork), in the road. As you drive toward it the angel is a dramatic presence and always makes me feel there are protective forces overlooking the city. Reminds me of
this film by Wim Wenders. Three extraordinary things have happened whenever I have watched this movie. The first time was a day or so after I'd had an extraordinary dream where an angel spoke to me - freaked me out a bit. The next time I invited N, soon after we met to come and watch it at the flat I shared in London. The third time was just a few miles from here at a friends house who was screening the movie. Before it even started some friends of hers came round unexpectedly. During the course of the conversation they began to talk about the aunt of their son's girlfriend who they'd visited in London, as the conversation went on I realised they were talking about one of my best friends Barbara.

I've an idea for a short film about 'angels over Glasgow' and this image would be key!
