I've lost 2 wallets, 2 pairs of gloves, and an umbrella (plus some other stuff probably). Never got any of it back.

Coming in late to recommend Safehands. Owner and all the guys are really sound with decent patter, past convos include birds putting their fingers up your arse, where to get the best gear, swingers clubs etc. There's one on Miller street that's closed atm for refurbishment and a newish bigger/nicer one on Parnie street. Never had a bad haircut, £22 for a 45 minute booking.

You were implying this is due to people adding more rubbish due to being in parks etc more as a result of the pandemic, I think his point was that this has always been an issue so it isn't due to the pandemic, although is has obviously made it even worse.

Magic City is one of the few and it's an alright night but honestly not a fan of the main dj/guy who runs it. Probably a decent bloke but not a good dj imo (first time he played at subby i could hear others saying hes shit on the dancefloor, though that crowd is a bit purist about djs). Crowd is very hypebeasty as well, if that's not your scene then I would give a miss. There's another night called Peach which is a bit more lowkey which plays a mix of stuff but I've been plastered everytime ive been so cant remember how good it is. I used to know one of the girls behind it though and she's sound.

Strathclyde does rank better than Glasgow in business BUT Glasgow has a far better reputation overall and is arguably considered the most prestigious in Scotland after Edinburgh. You'll also get more of the 'true' student experience being in the West End with all the bars, restaurants, shops, etc, that have a student-focus. As a result of this prestige, there are a shitton of international students which you might find makes life easier in terms of making friends. Strathy has more industry connections though but possibly not relevant if you don't plan on working in UK after you graduate.

It's funny how years ago if you asked this question everyone would be saying Paesano, but now that it's really popular everyone turns into contrarians. Anyway, Paesano is still the best by a mile (if you like Neopolitan style), Mozza is decent but not comparable imo (and has a chain feel to it).
