The main areas of Glasgow that the G3 postcode cover are districts such as Garnethill, Woodlands and Finnieston with it also taking in a small chunk of Woodside which is where I have lived all my life.
Woodside is a very convenient place to live due to its location being in the middle of Glasgow’s city centre and the West End meaning that city life has been a constant growing up.
Streets around me continue to evolve and change but there are still many reason why I love where I live.
I also live in a place that can claim to have had a Beatle casually cut across the road, be the birthplace of Sean Connery’s father and have a stunning Carnegie library building.
