Toepoke Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Noticed this place has opened up in Hillington, a couple of stops on the train from Central. Looks a bit of a laugh for a lads afternoon out... https://www.theexperience.org.uk/ Can't miss the place, it's got the front end of a 737 sticking out the building!

Dillinger Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Escape Glasgow. Would be 66 quid for the lot of you and would be a great laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunchy Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 If they like there football why not take them to Hampden and do the tour and museum.

There is also the transport museum but don't know what it's like now as its been years since I've been plus they moved it from next to kelvin hall Decent way to spend a morning maybe, before moving onto something more energetic or a pub crawl... IIRC the tour is about an hour, and you can spend as long as you like in the museum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Return of Yermaw Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I also may find myself in a big city at some point in the new year. Beyond everything a city has to offer, any suggestions as to what I can do to fill my time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Return of Yermaw Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Does the big city you may be visiting have a subway ? You suggest I could get off at every stop and have a pint? Ingenious. Now to think of a name for such a pursuit - pube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
