    Hey ghirls and bhoys,

    I have a wee question. I´ll be in Glasgow next week for the Aberdeen game and will arrive in Glasgow Buchanan Bus Station at 1am. Hotel is (according to them) a 10min walk and close to the shops.

    Is it safe to walk to the Hotel or would you advice me to take a taxi?

    You should be fine. You will actually enjoy the walk, there might be a few idiots you see but just be polite.

    Get a taxi, especially if you have hand luggage. Junkies pray for foreigners wandering around at that time.

    Id take a taxi just in case, but the city centre is generally ok because of the bouncers working all the doors.

    I'd take a taxi for the sake of a few quid and carrying luggage through the city centre at that time of night.

    Thanks for your replies, mates. I think I´ll take a taxi if available at the Bus Station at night

    @Martin: It´s in Bath Street

    Note the socks on this creature, not only are they WHITE, his trackies are tucked into them for some reason. Aggressive nature, * stains around the crotch area, talks through his nose, baseball cap full of grease and *; When you spot one of these, cross the road. :50:

    It will only cost you about £5 to Bath Street in a taxi.

    I think the taxi would be a good shout mate, walking to your hotel at 1am on Saturday in Glasgow city centre with luggage is not a good idea.....

    :56::50: but then I´d have the problem that they won´t let me on the plane walking around like this :icon_mrgreen:

    I´ll definitely take a taxi. Wouldn´t mind to walk as it´s not far but also don´t want to take a risk. That´s why I asked. Thanks again :celt_2: and let´s cheer on the hoops

    you would be fine mate, i know, as i run this city.

    nah seriously though, you would be fine, but probably best to get a taxi at that time of night.
