Glasgow
Glasgow
Things we love:
Everything costs less… compared to London anyway!
The New York grid structure was based on Glasgow’s – that’s huge
Everyone is ridiculously nice… some offer tours for no reason, they just wanna show off their city!
It’s the 4th largest city in Europe
Things we wish we’d known:
It all smells a bit liked fried food wherever you go…(is that the deep fried Mars bar?)
That accent is strong, concentrate.
The weather can do anything – sun, rain and snow, be prepared
Wet Wet Wet are from Glasgow as is Sir Alex Ferguson – take your pick!
