The Armadillo is probably Glasgow's most-photographed building - officially called the Clyde Auditorium and designed by Norman Foster, it's a series of overlapping steel shells:



One question bugged me for months - was it climbable? Yes :)

Stunning mate. Good pics, and a cracking climb, I'm sure...
