Big City Living for a Wee Country Boy

After living out in the sticks, the land that time forgot or as the locals name it Beith for the perfect part of my life I decided I ought to chunk the bullet and make the move. So began the arduous task of renting a flat in Glasgow.

I was not really positive about where I ought to search for a flat, I wished somewhere close enough to the life and soul of town and I wished to avoid the areas that make the Mad Max films appear to be one thing to hope for in the future.
