It's a shame no-one's mentioned Glasgow - my home in the mid-40s to early 50s - as it's a great place. When I lived there it was a dirty, bustling run-down shipbuilding city. Now much of it - particularly the West End - has been cleaned up, and the brownstone houses glow in the sun.

If you like art, there's the wonderful and beautiful Burrell Collection in it's own parkland, and there's the Glasgow School of Art. If you like food, there are superb restaurants on Byres Road. You might try and walk the length of Sauchiehall Street and have a drink in every pub and bar... and also have a high tea in the Willow Tea Rooms...

And, above all, the people are friendly and warm-hearted. There's a real buzz in the city.
