Here's a funny thing in Edinburgh, we have a Glasgow hack who passed the Edinburgh knowledge and actually works through here.
He reckons the money is better because of the Ph problem in Glasgow, you might want to think about jumping cities if you want to earn some cash in the short term. Don't know how long it is going to last but it might be better than working in Glasgow.
Don't know if it's still the same, but a couple of years ago Glasgow plates were worth a bit more than Edinburgh plates.
With situations like this there's maybe more to it than meets the eye? Has he got an Edinburgh plate, for example, but can't get one in Glasgow because he would have to buy one?
Another thing is that while you may think Glasgow has a lot of PH, by English standards it's certainly not hugely PH-biased.
In Glasgow around 60% of the combined fleet is PH, while in Manchester it's around 65%, Leeds it's over 85% while even in unrestricted Birmingham it's around 75%.
Edinburgh is certainly an exception big city wise with PH in the minority, but Liverpool is certainly similar in this regard.
Of course, we can't forget sleepy old Lincoln, which is nearly 90% PH.
