Edinburgh is all well and good if you've never seen a castle, but for real fun go to Glasgow instead.
You going to the rugby?I went to a match once,pissed for 2 days and didn't help when the match started at 1.00,good times.
I only went in 2 pubs when I went to McBrighton - The Blue Blazer (full of pretentious students and hipsters, and stank of wet dog) and The Shakespeare (good laugh). Think we went to a club called Lime or some such ****, but don't quote me on that.
