On the same day that it was said to be one of the top 10 cities to visit, I witness yet another ridiculous act right outside my office in broad daylight (these seem to be happening on a daily basis these days).

An S Class is parked just outside the easy internet cafe on st vincent street about 1.30ish. Was just having a look at it from afar when a young (semi smart, if there is such a thing!) ned walks up and somehow gets into the drivers door. He sits in but doesnt shut the door. Thought to myself that he doesnt really look like the sort to be driving an S class but you never know these days. Next minute he is helping himself to the sat nav and goodness knows what else and stuffing it in his bag. Then a guy runs out of Cafe Nero and goes for the car. Weird situation as it kind of looked like he might have knew him. Anyway, turns out that he does not and hastily drags the guy to the side of the road and makes him empty his bag and pockets. Some shouting ensues and then the owner drags him back into the car and sits there for ages. Had to leave at that point but would assume they were waiting on police.

I just cant believe the nerve of these people...and in broad daylight....in the middle of one of the busiest areas of town.

Makes you ashamed of the place.....how the hell do these people come up with Glasgow as one of the top 10?!!
