What Else?

We'll have a social in the city centre straight after the camp, but if you want to make a weekend of it, Glasgow is reknowned for it's vibrant night life. The city centre has some excellent restaurants, bars and clubs, with the main university area in the West End another popular area and easy to get to (by Subway).
