[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is up there with Edinburgh for reputation in the UK. Unlike England, courses in Scotland are generally 4 years rather than three, so you might want to look into that. It is [/b]a beautiful city- much grittier than Edinburgh but more fun.[/quote][b] OP here - how does beautiful = grittier[/quote] Not the PP, but it’s more of a vibrant, modern city than a chocolate-box tourist attraction. Art and design are part of the fabric of the city, but there’s irreverence and humor as well. I suspect “gritty” here probably means “less prettified,” less sanitized for tourists’ protection. More “real,” if you will, with all the good and bad that comes with it. Not that there isn’t a “real” Edinburgh—there very much is!—but as a visitor, you have to actively seek it out. Glasgow lets it all hang out. [/quote]
