I wouldn't recommend the PC World car park if you're going to be at the Armadillo for more than 90 minutes, according to the sign that's when they start fining you. Unless you're willing to patch the fine and put up with the emails and threats. If you're event is after 6pm then Elliot Street, Lancefield Street and Hydepark Street have parking bays which don't cost much. Even if you are parking before 6pm I think they're cheaper than city centre bays. I'd get down quick though because it's a popular place to park for Hydro events. by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 1st Feb 2019 11:35am)

When you think of the amount of burglaries that happen and people wake up and haven’t had the faintest idea anything’s happened until the go down stairs and realise their car and TV’s are gone, it’s understandable to say that this isn’t all that impossible either. by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 22nd Feb 2019 9:53am)

The green brigade tend to go to the Celtic Social Club on before and after games which is on London Road going in the opposite direction of the city centre. This was more likely ‘Bhoys’, a group who have splintered off and stand elsewhere in the stadium. ‘Bhoys’ very much want to try and play the hooligan game. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 1st Apr 2019 12:44pm)

Here I’ve noticed this as well. If it’s any consolation they’re giving out free kebabs if you redeem a voucher so you get to see if the food is worth it without having to pay. by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 5th Apr 2019 9:45am)

> Apparently, not sure if this is an old Glasgow myth, that all the original tram lines are still there, just under the resurfaced roads There's a number of areas around the city where the roads are so shitty that you can tell they've literally just been paved over. Because of the potholes you can actually see the cobblestones and the tracks for the tram. One place in particular that I remember is at the top of Broomloan Road just before you get to Govan Road. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 8th Apr 2019 12:36pm)

Just as a bit of an aside, I was bored and on Google maps the other day and noticed what appears to be an abandoned rail route that I first noticed on the corner of [Barrack Street and the Gallowgate](https://www.google.com/maps/@55.8559327,-4.2323578,153m/data=!3m1!1e3) and seemed to go south/south east under Calton, towards Brigdeton.

Celtic Park was being used for the Rugby last night. I’m not a rangers fan, so I wouldn’t know. It’s never something I’ve heard of them doing. But last year after the Scottish cup final Celtic did have a thing back at Celtic park outside the ground on The Celtic Way. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sun 26th May 2019 7:49pm)

I've actually been to Darmstadt to watch football there. It's a lovely town. It makes me sad that they've had to rebuild the gegengerade at the Merck-Stadion am Böllenfalltor.

In North Lanarkshire our GP surgeries have drop in sexual health clinics. My local one is a Monday morning. You can get all the contraception and whatnot that you need and you don't need to book an appointment. The downside to not booking an appointment though is that you turn up, are given a number and wait for your number to be called. You could be waiting 5 minutes or half an hour depending on how busy it is. It's a handy service that my girlfriend has used on more than one occasion. by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 12th Jul 2019 11:41am)

If you’re thinking of the Old Westergate building on Argyle Street, it’s not becoming a Spoons hotel. It’s becoming a [Yotel](https://www.yotel.com/en/hotels/yotel-glasgow).

I think the area surrounding the Crystal Palace was always the rumoured site for a Spoons hotel. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 5th Aug 2019 11:29am)

One of the cheaper towns I'd say is Coatbridge. You can get a decent 1 or 2 bedroom flat in your price range (and possibly cheaper), you're only 11 miles to Glasgow City centre and have 6 train stations that will get you to the city centre. Coatdyke, Coatbridge Sunnyside and Blairhill all take you to Glasgow Queen Street and run every 15 minutes. Coatbridge Central, Whifflet and Kirkwood all take you to Glasgow Central and run every half an hour. &nbsp; A taxi into town during the day will cost about £16 and if you're out socialising during the night it'll cost around £25. &nbsp; People, especially the posh wanks from town, like to shit on Coatbridge for being a hellhole, but the truth is, it isn't that bad a place to live and is certainly much better than a lot of areas in Glasgow are. And certainly much cheaper than town as well. It is (IMO) the best connected commuter town on the outskirts of Glasgow. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 26th Aug 2019 4:15pm)

What I do find hilariously ironic is the “loyalists” were up in arms and crying about “that kulture” a few months ago when they were rerouted away from marching past a Catholic Church after a priest was spat on the previous time they’d marched past. In fact it’s quite common for them to march past Catholic Churches and more historically ‘Irish Catholic’ areas and play their music louder to be as antagonistic as possible. As soon as someone from the ‘other side’ has the audacity to march in Govan they’re rioting. Cunts. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sat 31st Aug 2019 1:28pm)

It's always best to have some form of ID (passports or driving licences) on you in the town because some places will ask everyone to show it, regardless of how young or old they look. The worst bar for not letting crowds of guys in is Tingle Bar in Mitchell lane. Most other places you should be sound. You'll have no issues getting in the vast majority of places provided you're not overly rowdy as you approach the bouncers. If you have the option to book a table in certain bars then definitely take advantage of that because it'll pretty much guarantee you all get in. The Celtic-Rangers game was played on Sunday just passed so you'll have no issues in that regard if your not coming up for another few weeks. If you're up when Celtic are at home, the pubs in the Merchant City, Saltmarket and Gallowgate will be busier with Celtic fans after the game as these are the closest city centre areas to Celtic Park and many people walk into town for a pint after the game. I can't say definitively where Rangers fans drink in town because I'm not a Rangers fan and I simply don't know. Either way I don't see you having any problems with football fans if it by chance comes up in conversation. Hope you enjoy the city mate. by Kolo_ToureHH (Thu 5th Sep 2019 10:56am)

Glasgow is typically a lot safer than it's historical reputation. During the day you'll be perfectly safe walking around and it's unlikely you'll be a target for a mugging. The best advice (for anywhere in the world, not just Glasgow) keep your personal belongings secure and don't go showing them off, but that should be common sense. If you're walking about at night do your best to keep to well lit areas. The city centre especially has a lot of lanes and alleyways that are poorly lit and not well covered by CCTV so not advised to wander about them. Just keep your wits about you and if you're unsure/feel edgy in a particular area just get a taxi/uber. As for carrying weapons, I would advise against it. You're unlikely to face any sort of extreme violence and they possibly just get you into bother with the law. &nbsp; As for tipping, yes it's a thing here but it's a)not expected the way it is in the US and b)at your discretion. Here's my personal guide: - If you feel the service in a restaurant, café or bar/pub was good or the food was good give a tip that you feel is appropriate. - It's not expected but it's nice to tip the bartender when you buy a drink at the bar. Say something like 'take one for yourself' when you're handing over your cash and they'll put £1 in the tip jar (that is if of course if you drink). Doing so in a busy bar can (but not always the case) mean that you might get served quicker the next time. - If your taxi driver is chatty and nice, give him a pound extra. If he's a prick just give him what the fare is. - Hair dresser/barber is up to you. - Cinema staff and shop staff, it's pretty much unheard of to give them a tip and tbf I don't think they'd accept them anyway. - Coffee shop/cafe's is up to you as well. They have tip jars at the counter and it always appears like it's spare change that's tossed in. &nbsp; Hope you enjoy living in Glasgow :) by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 9th Dec 2019 12:50pm)

> Kind of felt sorry for the poor cunts having to walk all that way but they seemed in good spirits and had plenty cans. To be fair quite a lot of teams fans do that all of over Europe. It's a combination of making your presence seen/heard and safety in numbers. The Rennes and Lazio fans did it going to Celtic Park earlier in the year and Legia Warsaw, Feyenoord, Porto and now YB did it going to Ibrox. by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 13th Dec 2019 8:33am)

Really not seeing the connection between Gerry Cinnamon playing and the vandalism to the life belts? by Kolo_ToureHH (Sun 22nd Dec 2019 4:02pm)

At no point does the BBC article suggest it was Gerry Cinnamon fan that done this. In fact, the guy who made the original comment is making a rather tenuous link between the two. And you’re calling me a mongo you dim cunt. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sun 22nd Dec 2019 6:19pm)

Right so you're just going to ignore the fact that it's the weekend before Christmas and the town is chock-full of bams and idiots, more so than usual. Or that Glasgow in general is a city that is full of wee bams and idiots who are capable of this who would've been nowhere near the Hydro. I just find it utterly bizarre you're blaming this on Gerry Cinnamon playing with absolutely zero proof to back it up. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 23rd Dec 2019 10:07am)

I have to go into work, which is unfortunate, but unless you can build a data centre in my back garden then I don't have much of a choice. In saying that, my contact with other people between leaving the house and getting to my work is non existent. Where I live the roads were busy than I was expecting them to be, but the motorway was dead. It can take me anywhere between 40 minutes to an hour to get work in rush hour but today it took me 15 minutes. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 24th Mar 2020 10:25am)

I definitely remember walking across that sky bridge to get to the security hall and duty free once you'd checked in. Then they built the new security hall and duty free area and shut the bridge off, but it's been a number of years since that's happened. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 24th Mar 2020 3:59pm)

>Lots if cars. You serious? The motorway was dead today. I joined the motorway in ‘Rush hour’ at 7:30. I got to my work at 7:45. If I joined the motorway on a regular day at that time I wouldn’t get to work until 8:15 at the absolute earliest. Leaving work, I join at Anderston. Usually takes me three goes to get through the lights at the cross where Argyle Street becomes the Express way. Didn’t even need to queue at the lights and once I was on the motorway it was plain sailing until my exit. & nbsp; At lunch time, Finneston was dead. Some people coming and going and a handful cars passing and that was it. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 24th Mar 2020 10:35pm)

There was no activity in the construction site next to Exhibition Centre station and neither was there any on the construction site on Bothwell Street behind the newish Morgan Stanley building.

My local Tesco, one of the large Tesco Extras, has been pretty good with it. They’ve got the wee stickers down advising you where to stand when you’re queuing to get in. They’ve got barriers in place so that it’s one direction in and one direction out. You’re also not allowed to begin your shopping until you’re well inside the building and they have a staff member opening and closing the barrier. They also have tape down every few metres I each aisle and so far shoppers have been following the guidelines of standing at each line of tape when they’re queuing for something. Every second check out is open and then every second self service check out too is available for use too. Oh and there’s cleaning stations for the baskets and trollies on the way in and out too. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sat 4th Apr 2020 6:49pm)

>TRNSMT Fest Fam, We are absolutely gutted to announce that due to the comments made by the First Minister of Scotland during the daily briefing on 23rd April, TRNSMT will be unable to go ahead as planned in July 2020. We did not want to take this step but it is unavoidable. The health and safety of our fans, artists, staff and community will always be our top priority. We are now working hard with all the artist teams to try to get the 2021 line-up as close to this year’s as we can and will be able to update on this fully over the next two weeks. We’d like to thank the artist teams for their hard work in helping us to try and achieve this. This 2021 line-up announcement will be made soon and you will be able to either hold on to your ticket and carry it over to next year's festival in order to secure your place well in advance or request a refund. Your ticket provider will be in touch so look out for an email coming from them soon. Please only get in touch with them if you haven’t been contacted after 14 days as they are very busy at this time. We can confirm that next year’s festival will take place on the weekend of 9-11th July 2021. Finally, TRNSMT would not be the amazing festival that it is, without YOU – our amazing audience so we thank you for your support. Stay at home, practice social distancing and stay safe. We will be back next year to celebrate like never before – see you all then! Love, TRNSMT x by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 24th Apr 2020 10:33am)

As far as I'm aware the majority of dental practises are closed. I think some might be open but I'm not sure how easy it is to get an appointment. There are also hubs (like the dental hospital on Sauciehall Street and others in the surrounding council areas) that are treating the absolute emergencies, but from my understanding you'll get an appointment there if your dentist feels it's absolutely necessary. by Kolo_ToureHH (Wed 20th May 2020 8:52am)

___Queen Street Line____ Coatbridge Sunnyside and Airdrie are the two stops that provides a regular Express service into Queen Street. Takes about 10-15mins from Sunnyside and slightly longer from Airdrie. Parking at Sunnyside is okay, but you'll get down early if you want a space because they'll be taken up by the morning commuters. Oh and on the west bound platform at Sunnyside there is a little takeaway shop that does decent breakfast rolls and coffee if you fancy a quick bit of breakfast for the train in. Avoid the van in the car park at all costs. &nbsp; Parking at Airdrie is shite. The only decent car park is at the Aldi/Bowling Alley across the road and even then I think there might be limits on the length of time you can park there. &nbsp; There's no parking at Coatdyke so patch that. &nbsp; Blairhill has the best parking as the car park is built on the site of the old St Ambrose High and is huge. The express trains don't stop here though and the trains you do get stop at every stop. Even then you're only 20-25 minutes until you're in at Queen Street, so it's not that bad. If this is what you chose then my recommendation is park at either Sunnyside or Blairhill and get the train. &nbsp; ___Glasgow Central Line___ You can get the train from Whifflet, Kirkwood or Bargeddie. Whifflet has three car parks in close proximity to the station. There is one right next to the station which gets busy with the early morning commuters so you'd need to get down early. Then there is the [precinct]() just off the carriageway round the corner from the station. There's no parking limits there and it's covered by CCTV. The last [car park](), and the biggest one, is across the dual carriageway and behind the Whifflet Arms pub and next to St Mary's chapel. There's no parking limit here either so you can park here all day. &nbsp; Kirkwood has little to no parking, plus it's an absolute shitehole and the locals will steal your cars dust caps so patch that. &nbsp; Bargeddie has limited parking, but if you get there early enough it could be an option. Trains on this line take between 30-35 minutes. &nbsp; ___Driving___ Driving isn't a terrible option, but it can be stressful once you get to the city centre if you're not used to it. If you leave the house between 7:30am and 9am you will almost certainly hit the traffic at Junction 12/13 (Riddrie and Provan respectively) and it will be quite heavy until you get off the motorway. There is a [GCC multi-storey car park]() right across the road from GCU (and right behind Buchanan Bus Station), but it can be quite expensive. Check to make sure that GCU and the council have a deal which makes it cheaper for students. by Kolo_ToureHH (Thu 21st May 2020 9:13am)

So you're trying to link the GB to a Youth Art Collective based purely on whoever it was that turned up wore black jackets? It does show a lack of understanding on how the GB operate though. If they were going to do something like this, first of all they'd do it under their own name, not some 'Youth Art Collective'. Quite frankly they like the attention of having their name attributed to something like that. Secondly they wouldn't announce on Facebook what they were going to do and what time they'd be doing it. We seen that with the alternative street signs in the city centre the other weekend.

That Alexander Thompson hotel on Argyle Street has been housing homeless people. My company have an office in the IFSD and it's still open because there's an emergency services call centre on one of the floors. Any way they had to send an e-mail out to everyone who had scanned into the building recently to be vigilant because several staff members had been approached and threatened by people staying in the hotel.

I've mentioned this a couple of times since Friday, but my company has an office not too far from the Alexander Thompson which is still open because it has an emergency services contact centre on one of the floors and the company have actually had to send an e-mail to every who has scanned into the building in the last month to warn us to be vigilant as several staff members had been approached and threatened by people who were most likely staying in the hotel.

A lot of the pubs I follow on Instagram have made posts with their rules and most have things like: - you have to book a table prior to your visit and there's little (if any at all) walk in tables available - you'll have a time slot on your table (1hr 30mins/2 hours etc) - your table can only have up to 6/8 people - you can't sit at any table other than the one you were given upon arrival - table service only - contactless where possible - wear a mask where possible when going to the toilet &nbsp; I think it's a 'two way street' (is that the right phrase I'm looking for?) Punters have to obviously be respectful of the rules set out by the pubs and respectful towards the staff. That should be an absolute given. But pubs should obviously enforce those rules by kicking any punters who break the rules out of their establishment. - by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 6th Jul 2020 3:24pm)

From the restaurants I follow on Instagram though some/most of them are starting to take bookings as they plan on opening on the 15th.

I acknowledge that this is anecdotal but my girlfriend and I sat in Kelvingrove for a few hours the day before Father’s Day and were sat down by the fountain and round about there the age group mainly ranged from 20 to mid-40’s and things there were pretty chilled out. But up on the hill going towards the Gibson Street exit was a large crowd of people who all looked under the age of 18 (I’d say there was close to 100 people there) and they were pretty loud and had a pretty impressive sound system on the go. All afternoon there was a stream of people, quite clearly under the age of 18, walking past us with their Bucky and dragon soop walking towards the hill. About 8:30 the police started to clear the park because a fight had broke out on the hill and they were guiding the crowds toward the finnieston exit. As the crowd got closer to my girlfriend and I it was pretty obvious that they were under 18 and even the police officer who came to speak to us acknowledged that it was ‘the young team’ that ruined it for everyone else. by Kolo_ToureHH (Thu 9th Jul 2020 3:10pm)

Coatbridge is largely fine if you avoid Sikeside, Townhead and Kirkwood. I'm going to assume you're not buying in the Jackson Street flats either because that's where the council have put all the junkies. As for housing there's decent estates and the areas where there's a lot of ex-council houses are becoming nice as well. If you're looking for a flat there are good tenement style flats in Dunbeth, Blairhill. There are several new build estates too. &nbsp; If you're into keeping fit then there are several gyms to chose from: The DW, Time Capsule, New Age Fitness and JP's Gym (I know the guy who runs this one and he's a genuinely good guy), plus there is the running track at Langloan which has a small gym inside the complex. The DW and the Time Capsule both have pools if you like swimming. The NCN Cycle Route 75 runs through Coatbridge so it's fairly easy to cycle to both Glasgow and Edinburgh if you enjoy cycling. The Drumpellier Loch is easily accessible and a nice walk. There are nice trails if you like walking/running. If you're into golf, there are two course, Lochview (public) and Drumpellier (private). If you enjoy football recreationally, there are several pitches at St Andrews High School and St Ambrose High School where people regularly have 7-aside games. &nbsp; For shopping there's a big fuck off Tesco Extra, an Asda and a Lidl. There's also a Morrisons in Airdrie (if you ever want drive up to the bad lands). There's also a small M&S food store too if you want to treat yourself. If you're looking for a butchers, Penders or JP&W Alison are the two best. &nbsp; Socially, it's okay if unremarkable. There's decent pubs and shite pubs and the restaurants (The Mint, Mondo, Guidi's and the Crown Jewel) are all decent. 30's is probably the only nightclub that's available to over 18's as the other two are always full of people that are under 18. The Showcase Cinema in Bargeddie has recently been tarted up and is quite nice again. Across the car park from the cinema there is 10 pin bowling. Obviously Glasgow is close by and easily accessible by public transport if you'd rather socialise in Glasgow. A taxi to and from town will cost about £16 each way in normal hours and about £25 between midnight and 6/7am. &nbsp; As for transport I would say it's the best connected town in the West of Scotland, possibly even the whole country. There are 6 train stations. Whifflet, Kirkwood and Bargeddie which all take you into to Central Low Level. Trains tend to be every half hour on this line and take around 30/35 minutes to get town. You can also get a train to Motherwell, Hamilton and Cumbernauld from Whifflet. The last train from Central to Whifflet at the weekends is around 23:30 on Friday and around midnight on Saturday. Then there is Coatdyke, Coatridge Sunnyside and Blarhill where you can catch trains into Queen Street low level or to Edinburgh. Trains on this line are more frequent, arriving every 10/15 minutes and take about 20/25 minutes or, if you get the express train 15 minutes into Glasgow and 55 minutes into Edinburgh. The last train from Queen Street is around midnight on Friday and around 00:30 on Saturday. I don't take the bus but the main bus 'station' is close to the Main Street and has buses going in the directions of both Glasgow and Edinburgh. The M8, M74 and M73 are all easily accessible. &nbsp; >So as someone who is of brown/tanned skin is it a no go? I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you will be fine. Granted the communities are small, but there are people of middle eastern, Asian and East Asian descent who have lived here for a long time and don't seem to encounter any major problems. You may encounter the odd scumbag but those people exist in other parts of the WoS and are generally outliers. &nbsp; Coatbridge's reputation as being rough and poverty ridden is largely historical. There are still poverty issues in some areas, but for the most part it is a typical, middle of the road and slightly boring town on the outskirts of Glasgow. by Kolo_ToureHH (Thu 30th Jul 2020 9:54am)

I was wandering down through Finnieston to work yesterday afternoon and there's a red blaes football pitch at Kent Road Park which, in my humble opinion, needs ripped up and turned into something else. It's pointless. The days of playing football on those pitches are long gone and literally every time I walk by it there's no one using it. The council should get it turned into either an astro grass pitch that doesn't rip your legs to shreds, or else turn it into a nice community space. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 10th Aug 2020 9:47am)

As you probably already know, there used to be two Soul Barber Room premises, one next door to Rioja and the other down across the road from the Brass Monkey and both were owned by a couple, Scott and Lisa. The premises next door to Rioja was always the busier one. I won't go into the details of what happened, out of respect for Lisa, but they decided to go their separate ways in the summer of 2019 and Lisa remained in the premises next to Rioja, while Scott moved permanently into the one down the road. Lisa re-branded her barbershop, which is now known as the [Argyle Gents Club](https://www.instagram.com/theargylegentsclub/?igshid=rhygx9c1a301). The other premises remained as Soul Barber Room and was still open right up until we went into lockdown. Even during lockdown when I was out my lunchbreak walk, I'd seen Scott doing some work to the shop (painting and decorating) so I assumed he'd be opening back up once the barbers were allowed to, but so far I've noticed that he's not. I do know that the sunbed place right next door has been getting some pretty extensive renovations done to it so perhaps he's waiting until that's completed before opening back up. Who knows if and when he's going to open back up. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 18th Aug 2020 10:29am)

The Coronation Chippy on the Gallowgate (under the railway bridge just along from the Chrystal Bell pub) has a nice wee sit in area and does good food.

Think they do fried pizza as well. by Kolo_ToureHH (Wed 19th Aug 2020 4:38pm)

Was gonna suggest the Taphouse. It has Perspex screens up at the end of all the tables, a QR code you scan to ‘sign in’ and ‘sign out’ of the pub, table service and multiple hand santisation points through out the pub. They are being pretty strict with punters as well. Although, like most boozers round that area it’s quite small inside and the beer garden is literally a couple of chairs and tables on the pavement. Given your wife’s situation though, if you’re looking for somewhere with more space then Dockyard Social, SWG3, Cranside Kitchen or the Hilton might be better places. by Kolo_ToureHH (Wed 19th Aug 2020 4:50pm)

Things are starting to come back to life in Glasgow. Plenty of bars, restaurants and cafes are open now but you will have to book if you want a table inside. It’s also a bit strange as there’s no music and TV audio is also off for sports. Shops are open but you obviously have to wear a mask and follow the protocols inside them. Museums have opened up recently too and gyms will be allowed to reopen in the next week. Public parks are open and public transport is still running (the trains were finishing at 10pm during the pandemic but could be returned to their normal schedule now). Plenty of hotels are open as well, so you should be able to get a decent hotel for a couple of nights at a decent price. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sat 22nd Aug 2020 4:14pm)

Think you’re just unlucky tbh. I’ve been out a few times and all the bars and restaurants I’ve been in have taken at least one persons from the groups details for track and trace. Whether Taphouse, Sky Bar at Radison Red and Lebowski’s all have QR codes that you scan for the menu and Lebowski’s took mine and my girlfriends temperatures last night before we were allowed in. Majority of places I’ve been to are table service only. My barbers already used a text system to confirm appointments so they have all their customers mobile numbers which helps for track and trace. But all the staff have been wearing masks both times I’ve been in and I’ve been asked to wear mine while getting my hair cut. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sat 22nd Aug 2020 4:19pm)

Wetherspoons are one chain that don’t show any football unless it’s a summer international. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sat 22nd Aug 2020 4:34pm)

If you fancy a jaunt, the NCR 75 runs from Helensburgh all the way through Glasgow and on to Edinburgh via Bathgate and Livingston. Once you pick up the cycle path at Plains (back end of Airdrie) you cycle alongside the railway line basically until you get to Livi. And if you can’t be bothered going the whole way to Edinburgh it’s very easy to jump on the train at Caldercruix, Blackridge, Armadale and Bathgate and head back to Glasgow. The route does become quite tough between West Calder and the outskirts of Edinburgh as you have to go up hill a lot more, but once you get to Union Canal it’s an easy 7/8 mile cycle into Edinburgh city centre. Me and my did it at the start of August and did it in about 4 and a half hours. by Kolo_ToureHH (Sun 23rd Aug 2020 11:22am)

Well, there's been this small event called lockdown that's been caused by something called Covid-19. As a result, the majority of the people who work in the offices in the city centre and would be in the city on a Thursday morning/afternoon are either working from home or are furloughed. People are also still wary about going to shops, bars and restaurants while there's still a risk of catching Covid-19 so people are not coming into the city as much as they were pre Covid-19. by Kolo_ToureHH (Thu 3rd Sep 2020 2:25pm)

The only restrictions that have been put back in place in Glasgow, West Dumbartonshire and East Renfrewshire is that you're not allowed to visit anyone's house.

Been to Taphouse, Calton Taproom/Baad, St Luke's, Innes and Gunn, Grovesnor Café, Bier Halle and a few others and they've all been sound. Table service in all of them, tables are well separated, have to book your table before you get there (except Bier Halle), online menus accessed via QR code.

> Are you asking why the pubs can't open normally? As in we only have two options, open everything normally, or close everything? I think the point is that pubs are open with restrictions in place to try and mitigate the spread of the virus, where as the schools are carrying on as if fuck all has happened. And btw I'm not arguing that there should be no rules for the pubs, because I definitely think there should be. But the person you're replying to has a point. There's a school not far from my work (in a busy part of the town) and if I'm out my lunchtime walk when it's the school's lunch break, I see them piling into the takeaway joints and Tesco in groups of way more than 6 without a care in the world. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 29th Sep 2020 2:30pm)

One of the best cocktail places I’d been in recently was a place Weesht. If you hadn’t been before it was themed on a speak-easy bar and when you booked the staff gave you a number to call and a ‘location’ to be at. When you got to the location you called the number and one of the barmen would come and get you. Inside there was enough space for around 8/9 tables and it was dimly lit with some soft jazz and soul playing. They didn’t actually have a menu, just ingredients and the barmen would ask you what your tastes were and they’d make a cocktail based on the answers you gave. I got some whacky cocktails but also some great ones. One things for certain though, they did not skimp on the alcohol. Unfortunately it’s no longer there. The guys who ran it only intended to have it open for something like three months but it proved so popular they kept it open for nearly a year until the pandemic hit. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 20th Oct 2020 10:12pm)

>playing text tennis with barstaff One phone call is hardly text tennis. Enough of me being pernickety though. That in itself didn't make the experience any better. It was, after all, a quirky, fun gimmick. What made the experience stand out from the other cocktail bars I've been to though was the fact the staff actually sat down and made an effort to know and understand what flavours we liked and how we liked our cocktails, then made the cocktails to our tastes based on what we'd told them (and didn't serve any of the watered down pish some other places tend to serve). The service was just so much more personable compared to any other place I've been to (bar one). by Kolo_ToureHH (Wed 21st Oct 2020 10:04pm)

What the bloody fuck are people paying council tax for? In all of my trips to different cities in Germany (Munich, Dusseldorf and Berlin) they don't even wait until the bloody morning to start cleaning the place up. Many a time I've stumbled out a pub at 1am/2am over there and they have the street cleaners out emptying the bins, picking up (the small amount of) litter and power washing S/U-bahn stations and what not.

In isolation, a single defeat is by no means the end of the world. But, since October 17th we have played 10 games and won 2 of them. The quality of the actual football is also absolutely dire. &nbsp; I don't agree with the turning up to protest in the middle of a pandemic, nor do I agree with the chucking of a fence. What has to be taken in consideration though is, that after £500 spent on season tickets and a fair whack spent on merch this season, our usual avenues of venting frustrations are not available to supporters. We can't bitch and moan in the pub with our mates after the games and we can't be in the stadium to let the CEO, the manager and the players know how we feel.

Yes that's right. Kirkwood also does have a train station, in between Whifflet and BarG by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 14th Dec 2020 9:30pm)

Since the end of September/beginning of October (when over 18's football was forced to shut down again) I've been going up to my local pitches with some cones, an agility ladder and a ball to do a bit of training to keep my fitness up until it's allowed to restart. There's 3 full size synthetic grass pitches which get split into three thirds to give you 9 7-a-side pitches and for the last couple of months there's always a couple of pitches available since there's been no over 18 teams training, so I've been going up every couple of nights and using whatever pitch is free for an hour or so of training. &nbsp; Now, the younger folk who work for the councils leisure department are pretty chilled out people and just let you crack on with what you're doing. But there's this one older person who is an absolute jobsworth arsehole who threatened to phone the police on me for "trespassing" last night, just for doing a bit of training on an empty pitch. Surely to god there are better things to do than harass a guy who's doing a bit of training on his own. (Bear in mind that when these pitches were built, the council put letters through peoples doors saying that it was completely okay for people to use the empty pitches on the understanding that they vacated them when a paying party turned up for their time slot) by Kolo_ToureHH (Wed 16th Dec 2020 9:44am)

If you're willing to jump a fence or two then pretty much any of the pitches should accessible. One of the facilities out my way has left all their gates open but, since I'm working during the day it means I'm training in the dark at night because there's no one there to put the floodlights on. It's a wee bit crap training in the dark but you get used to it, but it does mean no else is around (minus the occasional dog walker). In saying that, when I'm driving home from work, Soccerworld at Ruchazie (just off the M8 East bound) usually has the flood lights on. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 19th Jan 2021 10:25am)

Currently, if the property is in a popular area, in good condition and your prepared to go waaaaay over the value of the home report then you'll stand a good chance of getting it.

There was a two really old Honda’s (I think) abandoned in the parking bays outside my work for about a month there.

Yeah it can be legally sold. The problem for the buyer is the bank might not approve a mortgage on said property. I had look at a ground floor flat where the owner had converted the basement, but planning permission had been denied because the stairs to the basement were literally worse than what you see in the traditional buildings in Amsterdam. They sold it to cash buyer instead of someone having to get a mortgage. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 27th Apr 2021 3:17pm)

My boss, my senior manager and one of the "tech specialists" are up from down south to do their first site visit since before the pandemic, so I said to them I'd get a restaurant booked and we can go out for dinner (usually when they're up I'm on call so don't get the chance to go out with them). Anyway, I took them to the Lychee and the tech specialist ordered a mixed starter for two (he did share it with my manager), won ton soup, prawn toast and shredded duck pancakes... and that was just his starter. He then went onto polish of a full main course and two side portions of noodles. Anyway, the food in the Lychee was as good as it was pre-lockdown and Jimmy (the owner) and the rest of the staff are as nice as he's ever been. I will never not recommend eating there. by Kolo_ToureHH (Wed 9th Jun 2021 9:31am)

Aside from punitively punishing the overwhelming majority of kids not involved in violence, banning unaccompanied under 18’s from the city centre doesn’t solve anything though and just shifts the problem deeper into the schemes. &nbsp; Plus how would an underfunded police force who barely enforced lockdown regulations actually enforce this draconian madness? by Kolo_ToureHH (Sun 17th Oct 2021 2:12pm)

>It’s easier to police a scheme than it is the town. Is it really though? With the number of schemes there are in Glasgow (and all the nooks and crannies that come along with them) I’d argue that dividing resources across such a wide area wouldn’t have the effect you’re hoping for. &nbsp; Not that I’m all for letting them run wild in the city centre, but your proposal is quite simply unfeasible. Your response to a social problem that affects a small subset of under 18’s is to punitively ban ALL under 18’s unless they’re accompanied by an adult. What about the 16/17 year olds who have part time jobs in the shops in the city centre that have to transit? Or the 16/17 year olds attending City of Glasgow College and have to transit through the city? Or those that are 17 that attend Strathclyde and Caley Uni and have to transit through the city?

There isn't really a way to get around being ID'd. If you don't show the bouncers when they ask for it at the door they'll quite simply not let you in. If the bar staff ask for it and you don't show it, they'll not serve you and probably ask you to leave or tell the bouncers to kick you out. The only real alternative is, if you have a mate or know someone that looks like you, ask if you can borrow their ID for the evening. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 18th Oct 2021 9:36am)

Coatbridge is easily the best connected town in the west for trains. Six train stations (seven if you count Bargeddie as Coatbridge). One line goes through central, the other goes through Queen street. Both lines tend to go to Milngavie and Balloch.

Finnieston and Ashton Lane/Byres Road are probably your best bets. In Finnieston you can start off in Strip Joint (where you can get some quality pizza and even buy a vinyl or two), then onto the Brass Monkey. Next up you're into Lebowski's for a White Russian or four, then the Dirty Duchess and Taphouse (get their popcorn chicken for a little snack to keep you going). Finally the last two are the Crescent before finishing off in the Kelvingrove Cafe. All about a 5 minute walk in total from one end to the other. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 25th Oct 2021 2:26pm)

Coatbridge is a generally decent area (despite the reputation it has from outsiders). Has great public transport connections (6 train stations that take you into either Central or Queen Street, 3 that go direct to Edinburgh plus loads of bus routes). Easy to get onto the M8 if you drive, plus the M74. Just avoid Sikeside if you can. There is literally nothing redeemable about that part of town. by Kolo_ToureHH (Mon 25th Oct 2021 2:30pm)

Depends what you're looking for. Are you wanting a fairly chilled sit down meal where you can take your time and enjoy it or a quick in and out scran to maximise time for other activities? If it's the former I'd definitely recommend Mother India or Meze Meze (probably lean more towards Mother India). If it's the latter you're looking for then I'd recommend Paesano (I say that because Paesano has a high turnover of tables so they pretty much want people in and out as quick as possible, the pizza is still absolutely cracking though). The only thing about Paesano is that it is walk ups only. &nbsp; Another recommedation for someone casual and not overly expensive is Sugo, which is owned by the same folk as Paesano. Instead of pizza, it's a pasta and as far as pasta restaurants go in the city, it's the best value for money in the city. Unlike Paesano, you can book or you can just walk up, although if you walk up you'll need to wait outside for a table. by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 12th Nov 2021 9:41am)

You won't win an appeal based on the fact you're a new driver. Quite simply, you have to be paying attention to the road signs around you as well as the sat nav. &nbsp; Where it might be worth checking is if it's one of those bus lanes that's a permanent bus lane (like the Argyle Street one that runs under the bridge at Central) a 7am-7pm bus gate, (like the one at Nelson Mandela Square) or one that's only operational between certain hours (like the one at Great Western Road that's only operational between like 6am and 9:30am and then again between 4pm and 7:30pm). That's where you might have a chance with an appeal. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 16th Nov 2021 9:36am)

There's a couple of ways to reach the stadium from the city centre on matchday: &nbsp; #Train from Central: Get the train from Central Low Level (platform 16) going east bound to either Bridgeton or Dalmarnock. Trains come roughly every 9 minutes for both stops and it doesn't matter what train you get as all Eastbound trains on the low level have to go through both stations. If you get off at Bridgeton [you can walk along London Road to Celtic Park](https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Bridgeton+Station,+Glasgow/Celtic+Park,+Glasgow+G40+3RE/@55.8489739,-4.2199619,16z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x488846b3b7d89abd:0x6538172b06039fd5!2m2!1d-4.2256264!2d55.8489591!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888414f6436db0f:0xf1778c849701d24!2m2!1d-4.2055427!2d55.849696!3e2) and it'll take around 10-15 minutes. If you get off at Dalmarnock, [walk up Clyde Gateway (A728) and you'll be at Celtic Park](https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Dalmarnock,+Glasgow/Celtic+Park,+Glasgow+G40+3RE/@55.8459101,-4.2162287,16z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888414aa4c7cb0f:0xcab7962ab5e406e5!2m2!1d-4.2176395!2d55.8421124!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888414f6436db0f:0xf1778c849701d24!2m2!1d-4.2055427!2d55.849696!3e2) in around 10 minutes. &nbsp; #Train from Queen Street: Get the train from Queen Street Low Level (platform 9) going east bound to one Bellgrove, Duke Street or Carntyne. If you're getting off at Bellgrove it doesn't really matter what train you get as all the eastbound trains have to pass through there, however if you're looking to get off at Duke Street you'll need to get on the Springburn train. If you get off at Bellgrove, [walk down to the corner of Bellgrove Street and Gallowgate, turn left and follow the Gallowgate until you get to Celtic Park](https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Bellgrove+(BLG),+Glasgow/Celtic+Park,+Glasgow+G40+3RE/@55.852549,-4.2203687,16z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x488846ac8cf44941:0x9f6d8d22c0563367!2m2!1d-4.2240796!2d55.8566841!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888414f6436db0f:0xf1778c849701d24!2m2!1d-4.2055427!2d55.849696!3e2). Google maps says its about a 25 minute walk but honestly, you can do it in 15 minutes. If you get off at Duke Street, [come out the station and down Millerton Street until you get to the Gallowgate (look out for the Forge Retail Park) and turn left](https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Duke+Street,+Duke+Street,+Glasgow/Celtic+Park,+Glasgow+G40+3RE/@55.8545454,-4.2139515,16.75z/data=!4m15!4m14!1m5!1m1!1s0x48884156b2e42943:0xb966224f76822204!2m2!1d-4.2125453!2d55.8585941!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888414f6436db0f:0xf1778c849701d24!2m2!1d-4.2055427!2d55.849696!3e2!5i1). Carntyne is probably the longest walk of the three so I wouldn't recommend it tbh, [but here it is on Google Maps anyway](https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Carntyne,+Glasgow/Celtic+Park,+Glasgow+G40+3RE/@55.852099,-4.1960192,16z/data=!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888416569c2fb53:0xe26bc71b101b840c!2m2!1d-4.1790525!2d55.8548233!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888414f6436db0f:0xf1778c849701d24!2m2!1d-4.2055427!2d55.849696!3e2) &nbsp; #Getting the bus: I don't travel by bus in Glasgow, so I'm not too familiar with them. According to the Celtic website you can get the following buses: No. 2, 61, 64, 255 and 240 from the city centre, however god knows where in the city is best to get them from. &nbsp; #Walking: There are two ways to walk from the city centre. [Either along Gallowgate or London Road](https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Maggie+May's,+Trongate,+Glasgow/Celtic+Park,+Glasgow+G40+3RE/@55.8527107,-4.2341836,15z/data=!4m15!4m14!1m5!1m1!1s0x488846a161c02303:0x580e75cf4cea8639!2m2!1d-4.2451499!2d55.8571291!1m5!1m1!1s0x4888414f6436db0f:0xf1778c849701d24!2m2!1d-4.2055427!2d55.849696!3e2!5i1).* When walking along London Road, you will end up walking through Bridgeton, which is classed as a majority Rangers supporting area and all the pubs in that area are frequented more by Rangers fans than they are by Celtic fans. So if walking I'd recommend walking along the Gallowgate. There is the Hielan Jessie, The Wee Mans Pub, The Drover which are all Celtic friendly pubs where you can stop in for a pint. Plus around the Barrowlands Concert Hall there are some fairly decent Hipstery bars like 226, The Gate, Van Winkle, St Lukes and Baad which will still be frequented by Celtic fans on match day. The walk will take roughly 30 minutes from the city centre to Celtic Park. *Please note I just used Maggie Mays as a quick point of reference in the city centre. &nbsp; #Taxi/Uber: If you don't feel confident doing any of the above then of course, Taxi's and Ubers are always a shout. Your hotel can usually call a cab that will arrive pretty quickly and if you have the Uber app then obviously they'll pick you up too. &nbsp; For a 3 o'clock kick off, I'd anticipate being out of the stadium by no later than 5 o'clock. If you're walking back to the city it's going to take, at a minimum, half an hour to walk back to the city centre. If you're thinking of getting the train back, I'd recommend going to either Bellgrove or Bridgeton stations as the queue is absolutely massive at Dalmarnock after the game. I'd probably say to anticipate getting back to the city for around 5:45pm at the latest. There is a bus stop across from the KFC and the Forge Retail Park that has city centre bound busses, however can get quite busy in the immediate aftermath of the game. Trying to get a taxi post-match will be nigh on impossible and even then, you'll likely spend longer sitting in traffic than you would walking, getting the train or getting the bus. &nbsp; Hope this information helps and if you have any other questions or are looking for recommendations on places to go for a pre-game beer or bite to eat just give me a shout and I'll be happy to help. by Kolo_ToureHH (Thu 18th Nov 2021 2:24pm)

>Thank you, GCC! It’s not just GCC who are at fault for this. You should also be levelling a lot of the blame at the locals who are more than happy to contribute to the city looking like a midden.

> It is the council that are removing bins from public spaces. It's the council that are not regularly emptying bins that still exist.

They'd all run/walk and chat for about a distance of 5km and there was all types of people and running abilities who were part of the group. There is a Glasgow East and a Glasgow Southside group, although both groups meet up in St Enoch's square. The Southside groups meet up on a Tuesday and Thursday at 6:30pm, and the other group meets up every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Both groups have instagram pages (@runtalkrunglasgow and @runtalkrunglasgow2.0) and [here](https://www.runtalkrun.com/run-with-us) is the website for the entire organisation. by Kolo_ToureHH (Wed 22nd Jun 2022 2:24pm)

"Taste" is of course a very subjective matter. Some old buildings are class. Some of them are absolute middens, even before they get into a state of disrepair (looking at you brutalist architecture). Some of the new buildings look great, some of them don't. I also don't necessarily believe that every single new building has to have some form of reference to "the past". Did the architects of 1800's Glasgow reference 1700's Glasgow in their work? by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 24th Jun 2022 10:12am)

I've attended at least one day of TRNSMT every year since it started in 2017 and the queues to get in have NEVER been as bad as they were on Saturday just there. I was there Friday, Saturday and Sunday there and on Friday we breezed through the queue in about 20 minutes, but on Saturday it took us over an hour and half to get in. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 12th Jul 2022 10:49am)

Getting the keys depends on what both parties agree on as an acceptable date for the handover. It mostly depends on how variables like a) has the seller found and purchased a property yet and b) is the buyer selling a property and if so have they found a buyer. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 12th Jul 2022 10:59am)

When I bought my place last year the guy selling it tried to set the handover date for like 2 weeks after we agreed on the price. Even though I was a first time buyer I had to pump the brakes a bit because that was just too soon. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 12th Jul 2022 10:59am)

All joking aside, I highly doubt that you'll be able to get any sort of compensation from them for your daughter missing one act. Tickets to gigs and festivals often come with the caveat in the T&C's that they "withhold the right to reject your entry for whatever reason they deem necessary and without compensation". Whilst I acknowledge that's not directly related to your complaint, they do state that purchasing the ticket does not guarantee entry. When I think about it, they'll probably reply with something along the lines of "the queues were caused by increased security checks" or something like that. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 12th Jul 2022 10:54am)

On the other hand my grandparents grew up in Govan from the late 40’s to the early 60’s and had friends who lived in Finnieston so spent a fair bit of their youth there. And my dad, uncle and aunt have all lived and worked in and around the area. Through the 80’s, 90’s and 00’s. From the stories my grandparents have told me of the Finnieston of old, it was a shitehole. They weren’t particularly complimentary of the place it was back in the day. And I mean Govan isn’t exactly the best place in the world is it? Every day of the week, I’d rather have grown up with the Finnieston of today than the Finnieston of then. >There’ll be no more characters in a few years as a lot of the reasons why we had characters is because people generally had deprived lives with a varied and interesting upbringing.

Kelvinhaugh Street is actually really quite good for parking, and gives you easy access back to Argyle Street and then to the M8 if that's the direction you're heading. The street is basically just student accommodation and students rarely have cars so there's an abundance of parking. Anytime I've been to a gig there it's sometimes really quite easy to get parked even away down at the Yorkhill Fire Station which is just round the corner from SWG3. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 18th Oct 2022 9:15am)

If Rangers are anything like Celtic they'll put tickets on general sale around a week to 2 weeks before the match. You may need to sign up to myGers though if you want to purchase tickets (double check that with actual Rangers fans though). There's only a small section for the away support at Ibrox in between the Broomloan Road and Govan Stand.

[Here is the website to the Scottish Amateur FA](https://www.scottishamateurfa.co.uk/league/type/1) There's three leagues that take in teams from West Central Scotland. The Glasgow and District Sunday Championship, The Coatbridge and Airdrie AFL and the Sunday Central/Football Central league. All organised and competitive if that's what you're looking for. I currently play for a team in the Coatbridge and Airdrie AFL. The league is based at St Ambrose High School in Coatbridge and between 11am and 5pm there's games all day there, although some of the teams do have their home parks elsewhere so there is a little bit of travelling involved. I have previously played a couple of seasons in the Sunday Central league and there is a fair bit more travelling involved in that.

Wait, the M74 doesn’t even go fully east, once it gets passed Motherwell it goes south to So this particular plan is to shut a section of the M8, and divert all that traffic onto the M73 and M74 (bearing in mind the M74 is already at capacity) if they’re transiting east/west across Glasgow? Seems to me like it creates more problems than it solves. by Kolo_ToureHH (Tue 4th Apr 2023 9:43pm)

Copying and pasting part of my comment from other subs. &nbsp; I’ve read the full list of closures and seen that the Coatbridge running track (Janet Hamilton Centre) is to be closed. That is facility is an example of scandalous mismanagement from the council. The running track itself has always been perfectly usable but just needs a little TLC and maintenance. The grass pitch in the middle of the track is actually in decent nick. But one of the buildings went on fire a few years ago and since then, the council have actively avoided taking any bookings whatsoever for the site and now manor absolutely no money from it whatsoever. I don’t think even the Airdrie Harriers use the facility anymore. &nbsp; In my opinion, they should’ve converted the grass pitch to an Astro turf 11 aside pitch years ago, and segmented the pitch into 3 7 aside pitches like they have at Saint Ambrose. by Kolo_ToureHH (Fri 29th Sep 2023 2:00pm)

>and breaking up a lot of gangs. Out in Coatbridge, we got two new schools built which amalgamated four schools into two. My school was the first to get built and amalgamated the two, older catholic schools (St Pats and Columba). It had the opposite effect and actually brought many of the rival young teams (which had been separated by the different schools) together. It also didn’t help that St Andrews and Rosehall were, for three years, separated by a patch of grass and a flimsy fence before the new Coatbridge high was completed and the students of the old Rosehall moved up there. &nbsp; The first two years were genuinely wild. It was only after all the bams started dropping out from third year onwards did things get better.
