Q.01: Where do you live now? How is your town like?
I live in Glasgow. Glasgow used to be a wealthy city famous for shipbuilding and steel manufacturing. Those industries have long departed and the city is now quite poor. In the last 20 years it has attempted with some success to re-invent itself as a cultural centre. There is a good music and art scene. Glasgow has an aspect of Victorian faded grandeur. It’s not as beautiful as Edinburgh, but it’s more fun.
