. I stick with my 'Glasgow as Northern Scouseland' opinion, though. Or does everywhere else in Scotland hate Weegies because they're jealous?
Incidentally, friends who support one of the Evil Twins football clubs say that Aberdeen is the only place in Scotland where it actually feels like an away game. Aberdonians have my respect for that alone

It may well have been because funnily enough I too remember a Chinese up the hill from Tannadice/Dens. It was up on Clepington Road and was then called "The Tak Awa" and I'm sure it was even called the "Ching Kee" at one time!
Obviously owners with a sense of humour!
Plenty of people do that journey, both ways as well. By US standards it may seem a short commute but in reality it's 2 1/2 hours out of your day that you could spend doing something more productive. And theres no pretty countryside to see between Glasgow and Edinburgh to soften the journeytime.awm wrote:Does anybody live in Edinburgh and commute to Glasgow or vice versa? It's only about an hour away, right?

It's a leafy Victorian suburb about 5 minutes walk from the Beatson with beautiful Brownstone-style houses (in Red or Blonde sandstone and often converted into apartments now) and tenement apartments which can be quite palatial.
