Re: Whats Carlisle like?
Quiet.
One good club. Interbreeding is rife, and has been for centuries. If she won't move to Accy, tell her to stay north of Hadrian's Wall in Glasgow.

There is quite a few bloody foreigners living there already...meaning other Scots! When I lived in Glasgow loads of people used to come up from Carlisle every weekend, because it is a bit like the back of beyond down there. I wouldn't like to live there.

Re: Whats Carlisle like?
My friend moved up there to run a pub, but didnt last long (partly because a pub came up in Accy) but she always said she wasnt right keen.

Er...it's a joke.  I've lived both in England and Scotland. I was just pointing out that compared to Carlisle, Glasgow is some sort of Promised Land.

and moving 100 miles from glasgow isnt exactly getting away from all things scottish.... if she doesnt like anything scottish then maybe she/them/he should go live on an inhabited island where there can be no complaints... |
