Moving to the UK...Glasgow!
Yea guys, I am moving to the UK in September and will be attending The University of Glasgow in Scotland.
Very prestigious University I may add...
They chose me, and I will be studying International Politics.
Hopefully I will run into a few of you UK fellers and felletes...and do a few pints.
If anything else gets better, I may get into The London School of Economics..still awaiting their descision.
But, I am secured with Glasgow...and will be in town by mid September. Just in time for the mind numbing cold.
Holla!

Good luck!
From the 'weapons' section of that site:
"Only a Glaswegian could come up with the hammer with a stanley knife taped to the top. Genius!" ;D
Don't wear green in certain areas of the city,don't wear a cross round your neck and don't do anything that remotely looks like you're blessing yourself!
Alternatively,in other areas of the city dont wear a Union Jack t shirt,mention the Queen or wear blue.
And wherever you are,don't mention Norhern Ireland! ::**

He WILL be your friend. ;D
Aside from all that,which area you staying in?West is probably the better bit,just try and avoid going into the city centre too much,it can get pretty violent.Don't let all this shit put you off though,Glasgow has loads going for it in the entertainment stakes,pubs,clubs,gigs etc and it has a HUGE student population so you'll find loads to do!
-
Re: Moving to the UK...Glasgow!
Yeah, Glasgow is pretty good for violent attacks, as you can see em comming and have enough time to pick your shit up and leg it, just be happy its not Nottingham.

Re: Moving to the UK...Glasgow!
Any groups of teenagers in shellsuits are to be avoided..................if there's 4 or more of them they WILL attack you,the lock knife being the weapon of choice closely followed by the empty Buckfast bottle! ;D
Go to that site http://www.glasgowsurvival.co.uk/
Go to 'Toys' and scroll down 5 or 6 things to 'Whit yay lookin it?'.Play that and it will give you a rough idea how to join in the local 'banter'!!!!! ;)

Hee hee - who told you that?
At some point you will meet the stereotypical Scotsman, just make sure that you are able to offer him a 'wee dram' of the national drink.
Also, pray that you never run into Scott Harrison in a pub!
Good luck in Basra Glasgow

Ahah dont worry mate its not "That" dangerous, its just full of men who like to get drunk and fight people, but not ordinary men who like to get drunk and fight, they like to get drunk, prefferably batter you to death and wake up and not remeber a thing.
Theres alot of drugs there as well, and even more chavs. But you'll probally be living in a posh area so you wont have to worry about the everyday common glaswegian bottling ya ;)

If it's Kelvinhaugh street thats in quite a posh bit and is about a 10 min walk from the Uni.As i said,just try and avoid walking about the city centre alone.It's not THAT bad but there are a lot of little pricks out of their faces who will think it funny to attack a guy on his own,just keep your eyes open and you'll be ok!

Religious extremism, fundamentalism, relative poverty, high crime rate, roadside bombs, a country occupied by the English.
I reckon that is where Osama is hiding out?

Uhh well theres like 2% of scotland isnt white, so they aint got much to be racist against, but if they get the chance they will call you every racist word under the sun.
Thats pretty much the whole of the UK for you.

No real organised racism as such,just ignorance to people that are new.Kurdish immigrants were getting it tight a few years ago and now it's the Eastern Europeans.

Glasgow has a somewhat different demograph to Edinburgh.
You will find that almost no-one that lives in Edinburgh was actually born there!It is,in fact,full of English, amongst others,wheras half of Glasgow is full of Scots who WANT to be English/British!

Re: Moving to the UK...Glasgow!
