Edinburgh on Snapchat Live: What a bloody disaster

We offered clouds, rain, and not much else.

So much for Visit Scotland, when Snapchat came to visit Edinburgh.

Clouds. How beautiful

It was a mix of people thinking they worked in the local museum, drinking, and some English folk thrown in for a good measure of confusion.

Nothing like a good dose of grey

We did have some students having a quick cameo, but it was brief. What we did show of them wasn’t their intellectual prowess, it was just…weird and boring.

Here’s another type of grey for good measure

The university was hidden. No Tab merchandise to be found. Not even any Buckfast. Just grey building after grey building.

Visit Scotland

One highlight had someone having a barbecue in the rain, and someone cooking some food (which wasn’t even of Scottish origin), but at least it showed some proper Scottish spirit.

This guy was just something else. Really couldn’t handle the wind, eh guys?

When darkness fell, boy did they showcase our nightlife – one whole Irish bar. IRISH. Snapchat, you fucking tools. Worst yet, you couldn’t even see the bars because everyone who filmed appeared to forget what flash lights on their phones were invented for.

Where’s the Buckfast?

Where were the media students when we needed them for once? Honestly, I could’ve plucked better video footage from Kim K’s private collection.

They did manage to hide the Napier students well though. One brownie point.
