Go to a housing estate at you own peril though, as someone said it's stab happy. I have had friends involved in some real nsty shit and my cousin was killed a few years back in a stabbing incident because he had an argument about someone switching channels on the TV in the pub

I have been chased by people with knives and hammers and axes , was all a bit mental growing up at times. I used to watch running battles with gangs from my Grans 4th floor window at weekends.

I tend to not notice things in other cities at times becasue I got a bit immune to it , can be a bit dangerous as I tend to take things for granted and don't take much shit from local upstarts
Your guys up there are mad. I remember seeing one Glaswegian guy fighting 7 armed Cypriot police in Ayia Napa, with blood pouring down his face, & the lil fucker (he was about 5'7) was actually winning until one clubbed him over the back of the head with a rifle butt. Actually come to think of it, most Glaswegians I've met have either been frightening lunatics or crackheads. Guess we won't be meeting up for a pint anytime mate
