Rubber ducky, you're the one
To close the Glasgow River Festival, thousands of
rubber ducks will be launched off the Clyde Arc bridge and raced down river. Adopting a duck costs just £5, with all proceeds going to KidsCharities UK, and owners of the first 20 ducks across the finish line will win excellent prizes (which seems a bit unfair as the ducks did all the
swimming . . .)
