City Discussion: Glasgow

[Moomin]

Glasgow the drug capital of Scotland and home to the Scummiest football fans in the UK ( Rangers ) due to a recent survey when they got more than double the votes of all the other suggestions.

Lowest average health expectancy for men in the UK of 54 years of age due to smack and ale.

Far preferable to London.

Certain parts of Glasgow would be like London with all the union jacks and pictures of the Queen.

Glad both my parents were from the West end.

It is one of the greatest cities on Earth, when your most photographed tourist attraction is a traffic cone on top of a statue, you know you're doing something right

More culture than Edinburgh

 

[YoboCopter]

Very easy to get any kind of drugs
Lots of rough women

I lived just outside for a couple of years. Loved the city, like stepping off the edge of the world once you get past the city limits.

Considered moving there a couple of times. Rains too much though. Would say is easily the most left wing city in the U.K.

My 1st time in Glasgow I asked for directions. "Head down there you'll see a man on a horse with a cone on his head, take a left there". I thought to myself aye deadon, what a cheeky git. 1 minute later oh look a man on a horse with a cone on his head!

 

[Connor]

Almost moved there a few months back when the very bad thing was close to happening to the Toffees

Maybe one day
