a city of extremes. in one day you can view the original salvador dhali christ painting, spend the afternoon wandering the chic boutiques and vintage shops of the west end and then get chased by neds “doon the gallowgate” and consume more saturated fat in one meal than you ever thought possible.

glaswegians have a fantastic sense of humour though and are overall extremely friendly and enjoy a bit of banter.
