Glasgow City - Episode 3 - Kylie Minogue clearly loves Glasgow - I wonder if she rides the Clockwork Orange when she's in town

In this third Episode on Glasgow city, we have just come to the end of University Avenue, arriving at Byers Road, a favourite place for University Students to eat and drink. What is the scandal surrounding the Tennant Pub? And what does a Clockwork Orange have to do with Glasgow’s underground railway system, the third oldest in the world. I’ll be mentioning the conversion of 19th century Town Houses to hotels and find out where Kylie Minogue stays when she is visiting Glasgow. Down on the waterfront we will visit the Scottish Exhibition Centre to see an arena that looks like a spacecraft and the other one that looks like an Armadillo. Across the other side of the River Clyde, we will visit the science centre and I’ll tell you about the Glasgow Tower that earned the Guinness World Record, for its ability to be rotated 360 degrees in the presence of wind. We will also be visiting a couple of the 20 art galleries and museums that adorn Glasgow which has some of the most eminent collection of arts and historical antiques in Europe. Oh, and don’t forget the musical arts centres where our opera house sits opposite Scotland’s centre for bagpipes. Could one say that the sounds are not dissimilar?
