| Yeah I'm from the Aberdeen area but down in Glasgow for Uni. I'd have to agree with you that it is a bit of a shithole really! The only redeeming features are Moshulu rock nights & Black Atom!! |

It has a great range of shopping & nightlife for somewhere it's size, it's friendly, it's clean, it's a lot safer than Glasgow.
I could go on
It's the smallest, friendliest big city, or the biggest village, you'll find & it also has good transport links to Glasgow & Edinburgh to escape when it starts feeling like a shithole.  |

#6 | | Guest | I also pass through there, when I go to visit my girlfriend in Lhanbryde. To be honest it strikes me as a rather pleasant little place! | |
