Are you sure you got on the right train...?

I found the two stations at different levels interesting, but then many would call me a train buff.

You don't want to live there.

I was in Glasgow the other weekend for fun and beer.

Did the open top bus tour - which certainly blew away the morning's hangover and was quite interesting really.

Then drank lots of beer - the good thing about Glasgow is people in pubs expect you to be drunk - sometimes when in other parts of the UK you get the feeling people in pubs get confused by people who have had a few drinks.

Didn't have a fried mars bar though.

Edinburgh's like a Disneyland version of Scotland. Speaking as very much a native Home Counties guy, I lived in Glasgow (a five minute walk from Kelvingrove in fact) for nine years either side of the turn of the millenium, and I was stunned by what a vibrant, friendly, diverse and "liveable" city it really is. I'm a country boy at heart, but if I had to go back to living in a city, I'd pick Glasgow.

I agree.

Edinburgh is a city only built for tourists. You walk down the street and you barely hear any Scottish voices, most of the people in Edinburgh are either english, foreigners or tourists.

Been living in Edinburgh for 6-7 years now but I'd move to Glasgow in a heartbeat. More vibrant, diverse and with more genuine people. Better music scene. Food and drink scene is comparable to Edinburgh. You get more for your buck if you plan on settling down and buying a house. Glasgow just rules.

Edinburgh is brilliant.
Glasgow is a barely domesticated tulip-hole.
