gobo1979uk Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Hey everyone. getting excited about Collectormania Glasgow yet? I'm going up to Glasgow on the Friday morning so was wondering if there is anything interesting to do during the daytime. Was thinking maybe IMAX on the night and might also take a trip along the river. Anything else touristy I could do? Never been to Glasgow so thought I'd thow it out there. Cheers.

MentalHaggis1990 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Well, there are plenty of museums in Glasgow such as the Gallery of Modern Art near George Square and the Kelvingrove Art Gallaries. Other than that, there are plenty of shops and the IMAX cinema at the Glasgow Science Centre is really good (I saw Star Trek there a few years ago) and if you do get a chance to walk down the river, towards Springfield Quay there's a selection of places to eat (Nandos, Frankie and Benny's, Burger King) and a bowling alley. There's plenty to do in Glasgow but I hope what I've written helps a little. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vodkawrestling Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Great suggestions above. Id head over to Kelvingrove Museum if I were you. The new Transport Museum on the Clyde is good as well. Both those are free and entertaining. Also, i'll pimp out Geek Retreat as normal! Great little Comic Book Cafe/Shop on Union Street that you NEED to check out :) Sent you a wee hello on Twitter :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
