Being a lone resident, I always seem to accumulate an excess of food, purchased wherever a spectacular bargain price is on offer, a habit I developed from many years of living in third world countries, so I always have a surfeit of items approaching the sell-by date, and having travelled in the aforesaid countries, encountering people in dire poverty with no prospect or guarantee of next day's sustenance, my conscience is troubled about how to dispose of my waste food, which may be still be edible to somebody less fortunate in life than myself.....
So, enter 'stage left' my nocturnal pal, Mr Fox, who as time goes by, appears to become more and more tame and friendly, and acts as my personal waste food disposal unit, which keeps him alive in the freezing cold winter months. Normally foxes are very timid, nervous creatures, but in Glasgow's urban sprawl they appear to have no fear of the residents, and wander in and out of back gardens, with impunity. They are also beneficial in keeping the rat population under control, with whom they are in contest for winter food.
A slightly unorthodox nightlife tip, I must admit, but why not adopt your own fox, as I have?
Dress Code: Mr Fox does not observe any dress code.

After a tasty dinner on Ashton Lane we looked for a pub with live music. This was not hard to find. Outside Jinty's the sign said: "Live music, Karl, 9-11".
The pub quickly filled with people, tourists and locals, young and old, and as Karl sang well- known Irish and Scottish songs and other all-time favorites the music was great and so was the atmosphere.

Brand new this venue adds to Sauchiehalls booming nightlife central status around Charing cross ,at the moment is centred round the r'n'b music scene. Very popular on opening night and has been cosmopolitan enough to challenge A>B>C> club nearby in putting all guests of the Berkeley Globetrotters Backpackers Hostels on their guest list . i.e. free entrance.
Sound decor and a warm feel, actually quite sumptious

Prince Charle Edward Steurts army painted the street red during their stay {occupation ?} and no night out in the city is really a night out without visiting these hostelry's under the lea of the varsity towers. Very popular with students.Perhaps even more so due to the recent new university accomodation villages along Kelvin haugh and 900 new flats for students proposed over the kelvin river.
Dress Code: Student.

This bar dates back to 1971 and has been a defender of scottish food and drink ever since. There are two bars, a restaurant and a brasserie that all have a classic reputation. The upstairs bar is open late on Saturday nights.

This bar opened on 2004 and is a lot bigger than the entrance suggests. There is a very mellow atmosphere and I've been told that the food is excellent.
This is one of several of this name throughout Glasgow (see website for others).

THis magnificent Baronial hall, named after a famour conductor but this is actually just the rehearsal room of the National Orchestra.Scottish National Orchestra.The height of the ceiling and the i dont know how to describe it ,the wrought iron work of the woodwork of the room is awesome.I was actually at a ceiligh dance and the acoustics were spot on.I imagine its the same for a concert.
