  • Glasgow Stag Do – Wheelchair friendly?

    To my eternal honour (and surprise) I’ve been asked to be best man for a mate. Need to organise a stag do in Glasgow – probably just a single day. We were planning on Clockwork Orange (pub crawl via the Subway), but one of the lads is in a wheelchair and it turns out that the Subway is pretty unfriendly for wheelchair users.

    I’d like to avoid just doing pub-and-curry. Would be good to do something memorable. Any thoughts/suggestions?

    Everyone chips in a few quid to let the wheelchair user and a buddie get a cab between stations? There are loads if hackneys which will be suitable.

    Turn the wheelchair into an 18th century style sedan chair and all dress like beau brummel?

    As above, do the subcrawl in taxis, it’s a pretty small city, so it won’t cost much. You could probably get a taxi co to give you the same taxi all day.

    Don’t use G1 Venues. My pal had to sue them for disabled access discrimination.

    Why did your pal have to sue them? I can think of loads of bars and eateries in Glasgow where wheelchair access is just not really possible – all the sub ground level bars below Georgian terrace buildings on Bath st. frinstance.

    None of which are G1 venues, considering the gigs they host in the Catty and Garage you would think they would have their shit together. World class arseholes besides that, thrown out the Garage for literally nothing more times than I care to remember.

    Never said they were, merely pointing out that wheelchair access in an old city is not always a reality.

    If it’s the same case, then it was pretty well known at the time
