There's not many bassists better than me in the north east but he is one of them, I wasn't surprised at all he ended up with you marra. Tell him I still have his white custom built squire with a new neck but I've put some Quarter Pounder pick ups in it so it sounds brilliant and I still have the original pick ups. He will know what you are talking about marra.
You’re guaranteed to be a right fat fuck now mind.
Everyone I know who works away from home for a long period of time in an office based job always ends up at least a good stone heavier after eating in restaurants every day.
Not if you eat Japanese or Vietnamese.

Welcome to Slouch Slouch exploded onto Glasgow’s nightlife scene almost 12 years ago and we strongly believe we introduced the first venue that paved the way for all that came after us. The complete all-purpose late-night music destination. We take all the things that make your traditional...slouch-bar.co.uk
Bath Street has loads of great bars and the Finnieston area of Glasgow is also a superb night out.
I love "The 78" in Finnieston. Its a vegan pub with awesome food and we pop in there every time we are in Glasgow. Our carnivore son loves it too:

That was the first Glasgow pub I ever went in, back in the mid 80s.

I've lived in Maryhill for years. Never had an ounce of bother. Twenty minute walk to city centre, same to get to West End/Partick/Finnieston. Five minutes from underground. Perfect for the casual alcoholic!My graduate engineer stays in Maryhill. It's not too bad where his flat is. I'd be fucked if I'd stay there though, I'm in Giffnock

I know it's not as bad as people say but I'd still rather be in Giffnock. That said anything is progress for me since I was born in PennywellI've lived in Maryhill for years. Never had an ounce of bother. Twenty minute walk to city centre, same to get to West End/Partick/Finnieston. Five minutes from underground. Perfect for the casual alcoholic!

I love Glasgow. It has a slightly unwarranted reputation for being troublesome but it's just like any place, if you want trouble you'll find it, if you don't you won't.
There's a cracking burger joint somewhere on Saucihall Street. If you nip out to the front of Central Station for a quick tab you're bound to have a stranger come up to you for a light and a chat. Good old fashioned music venues like their O2 academy, with bars at the back and down the side of it.
Never had an ounce of bother there, and there's plenty of decent places to see, and bars and restaurants across the city.
The only thing I can't get used to is them pronouncing G as "Jai".

Me too. Prefer it to Edinburgh, if I'm honest.
Bars are less pretentious and there's loads of top-notch restaurants. Never had any issues with being English and always found it to be more friendly than most of the big cities I've been to in England.
