Very interesting Edinburgh and Glasgow there used to be a lot of doo men, even shops dedicated to it up there. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For me, Glasgow people are down to earth, friendly, straightforward. They speak openly about sex. Edinburgh folk are more remote, consider themselves posher and keep themselves to themselves. They think 'sex' are devices for holding coal. Edited 1 hour ago by jukel123 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
