"It's a term of endearment here" was priceless Eleanor,I love your humour and I'm always thrilled to see a notification for your videos as they're guaranteed to make me laugh out loud. Great moustache by the way. :-)
In college while backpacking through the UK, a million years ago, I was told that Glasgow was filled with big, manly, blue collar types. So...that changed, huh?
yeah I used to deliver to the West End from a pretty rough English town when I was in sixth form and my dad would lecture me about keeping the windows closed and beep my horn when i got there and wait for the warehouse workers to come out before opening the van. That would be late 80s, it's been gentrified since then.
Thanks Eleanor. Good to see you again. Great disguises - I might never have recognized you! Just a note: You might have tinted your knuckles yellow, then darker yellow, then an orang-y light brown, as you smoked more and more blunts. Maybe some time when Craig is on break from giving tours?
This video validates all my emotions everytime I walk around everyplace I enjoy to go. The temptation to have t-shirts that say "fuck off back to london" I wonder if they would wear them ironically?
We are going to back to Glasgow for a science fiction convention in August. The heat index in Boston is 38C, so no complaints from me about cool weather. I think I will listen to Janey Goody's new book to get in the mood.
I visited Glasgow several years ago. The older buildings in the downtown reminded me of the architecture of Philadelphia, where I live. I loved the parks and greenery, and friendliness of people. It certainly was not as busy and rushed as London. And I love that if you're from Glasgow, you're a Glaswegian!
Been to Glasgow twice, love it there. Yeah did have some run-ins with some dickheads here and there but there were some really lovely people I’ve met! Your video reminds me of the students I met during my school trip to GSA back in 2019 😂
The double beanies...lol! In LA the hipsters congregate in an area called Silverlake which I avoid like the Plague.My favorite bar in Hollywood has a "NO HIPSTERS!" sign out front.
@@paulperry7091 No kidding. The hipster hasn't been born who doesn't think he belongs in a "no hipsters" bar. The only way to keep hipsters out in 2024 America is to festoon your place with Trump regalia.

At leasts punks and goths and grungey types have some congruence to their style....while hipsters are random. Get some congruence, hipsters. 🙂
@PapaSmurf40K as I understand it, an orange march is in part a contraction of a reference to William of orange the conqueror. Symbolically in the western hemisphere orange is sometimes used as a color to indicate support of the protestant settlement of ulster, which is in the north of the island of Ireland. The settlement history was funded by the British royal family in part to expand their control of the transition to protestant rule in England Scotland and Ireland. The British crown promised land in the north of Ireland to protestants in Scotland, who wanted to have more and cheaper access to arable soil. Best explanation I can give you at the moment.
LMAO, just thinking the marker is permanent. Glasgow? Lovely city, I couldn't understand a word, had I not had an Edinburgh girl with me I would have been at a loss.
I must admit that I’m visiting Edinburgh and all over the Highlands for the first time in 2 months, but I’m skipping Glasgow. Not sure if this confirms that this was a good decision or not. 😂
Welcome to the beautiful Scottish village just 30 minutes from Glasgow with the words best fish and chips where the local community groups are all mysterious run by overly enthusiastic English women and filled with oddball English men trying to build a sense of community. They've achieved a lot since they started like getting a local Scot to help run a bush craft event in the woods.The guy the locals repeatedly warn is no right and is on the sex offenders list.
I had a flatmate from Glasgow. He was, how do I put this? He had opinions and he was ready to back them up. He said he had to leave Glasgow because people were too quick to fire up.
I am Scottish (though not a Glaswegian) and once had a flatmate (in London) from Glasgow - a journalist who worked on the Daily Mirror, very quick witted and opinionated. Made me laugh when he said “You know the English say you should never discuss religion or politics in the pub? I mean WTF is that all about, what’re you supposed to talk about then, the effing weather? In Glasgow that would only leave football as a topic - and even THAT is about religion and politics.”
No offence to the rest of your jokes, but that 'I want to help people...I work in finance' bit was SAVAGE. Laughed real hard at that.
What I take from this is, I should stop wasting my time trying to grow a beard and just get a Sharpie.
A sharpie? Eyeliner maybe, but a sharpie? Get a clue.
I find shaving the beard to be the thing that wastes the time.

In every conceivable way, Scotland is better than England. And Glasgow has come a long way. So these hipsters aren’t wrong….
So, the UK equivalent of anyone who moves to Portland, Oregon
Well, anyone who moves to Portland after you did.
With the qualification that Glasgow itself really isn’t at all like Portland…
