>A rescue operation was launched for the boy on the River Kelvin in Glasgow at about 18:40 on Saturday. His body was recovered at 23:30.
>Earlier a 63-year-old woman died in a fall near Campsie Glen waterfall in East Dunbartonshire. The body of a 39-year-old man was also found in the River Tyne at Haddington in East Lothian.
>At around 22:30 on Saturday a 50-year-old man was pulled from the water at Loch Lomond. Police said he died in hospital on Sunday.
Really sad to hear. Please be careful if you are around bodies of water or trying to cool off in a loch or river – it can be dangerous with the water colder, deeper, and faster than you anticipate.

The kelvin story is grim, some friends of mine live near the river and they heard the screams of the group trying to rescue the boy. Turns out he goes to their kids school so it’s been a hard day with their kids.
Weird. My entire life I called it “the carpark in the sky”. Not once in almost half a century did I ever hear anyone call it Campsie Glen car park.
