I've been up and down and over and out....and I know one thing.

Feh, Edinburgh? If you're going to visit Scotland, you want to come to Glasgow.

I miss Safeway. They got taken over by Morrisons here, and it's just not the same :( They've stopped doing this gorgeous pizza sauce I used to get all the time (On pita bread with mozarella. Om nom nom)

That's made me think - have you seen Billy Connolly's World Tour of Scotland? It's mid-1990s so there's stuff out of date (eg it was very pre-Scottish Parliament) but it's good for comparing Glasgow with Edinburgh. And it will make you want to visit everywhere in Scotland :)

I actually did. My friend Carol Ann, a lovely Glasswegian lass that I was working with at the time, lend me the VHS of the whole thing. Perhaps the seeds for this idea were planted then, although hubby has always loved Irish/Celtic music. We went to Dublin and Cork on our previous trip to the UK in 2001, so this time around it's Scotland's turn. IF any of this actually happens.

No, but I probably should have (on account of BC being The Big Yin and therefore my patron deity). I assume he was pretty biased as well XD

Maybe we'll be able to get there as well. I have no idea why hubby is fixated on Edinburgh, but I'm sure I can nudge him in the other direction.

[the_summoning_d]

You should. Because Glasgow's just that awesome.

[karaokegal]

He's definitely enlarging his field of research. We may get there after all.
