I've been in all 4 of those, YAWN.

Where else can you go you get chased by burberry wearing bucky drinking 13 year olds at 2 in the afternoon?

Glasgow is exciting.

We've thrown stones at English people for hundreds of years, it's just a habit we have.

In all seriousness, the actual city itself is a beautiful place.

It's the scum that loiter in it that give it it's bad name.

If you go about the city centre some of the architecture is really magnificent, places like the school of art and even more modern places like the Armadillo make the city really stick out.

I love going for a day out in Glasgow

On saying that, our shopping trips will never be quite the same - our favourite place for lunch is no longer there
