#Glasgow has become as much of nightmare to drive in as Edinburgh in the last few years. That is a big reason I stopped going.

Plus they killed #PaddysMarket and a lot of the quirkier places in Glasgow too. They've built up and over most of the interesting places to go. It has become too #Gentrified. Glasgow succeeds when it is rougher, not when it is Edinburgh-lite. If we wanted that, we'd go to #Ayr.
