      Everyones got one. An opinion that is.

      Nice try though.

                Never been - but one of my buddies from way back was a Glaswegian. One of the funniest blokes I've met. Liked a drink and so did I back then.

                He was Celtic mad, so a crazy sectarian too, but all tongue in cheek which made it very funny. I would just love to hear his opinion on the Jedi "Poh-liss". Maybe I'll call him just to ask.

                  Can you elaborate please? I had thought that most of the sectarian craziness was the preserve of a neighbouring club.

                      I've worked in Glasgow twice on fairly long term projects.

                      On both occasions I stayed in a village near Strathaven. I prefer to not reside on the doorstep of the client.

                      The architecture in the city is fantastic(If you look higher than the shop windows.).

                      Great places to eat and socialise.

                      Some of the "Neds" can be twats though.

                      As others have said, same problems as any other big city.

                      Also if you're up there for the odd weekend travel out to the west coast! The scenery can be breathtaking!
