How are you all good here? Any news?
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Well it just started raining now, oh really yeah, that's
the big news.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Yeah right.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
So today we're going to talk about places around the city.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Oh nice, are we focusing on any city in particular?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Well, we'll talk about our own cities. But first I'd
like to go over the vocabulary for places in the
city so our listeners can learn perfect. All right, let's
get started.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Let's go an airport, a university, a cinema, a train station,
a bus terminal, a bus stop, a synagogue, a market,
pubs and cafes, a pharmacy, restaurants, a car dealership, a hospital,
(01:20):
a stadium, a park, a fire station, toy shops, a hotel,
a square, a library, a supermarket, a theater, a police station, skyscrapers,
(01:41):
a book shop, a car park, a port, a museum,
a school, a mosque, a church, a shopping center, a bakery,
a factory, a town hall, a cathedral, a petrol station,
(02:06):
a post office.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Well done, Rachel. Today we're going to play a little game.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Oh really, that sounds fun. What's the game?
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I'll ask you questions about your city, and you'll answer
and then you can ask me about mine.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Sounds good, let's do it.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Does your city have a cinema.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Yes, we've got cinemas. In fact, we've got two big chains.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
How often do you go to the cinema, Rachel.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Well, I go depending on what's showing, so I usually
go about once a month, every Wednesday. There's a special offer,
so we take advantage of that. Go as a family,
watch a film, and that's about it.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Sounds great.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
In your city, do you have a park.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yes, Rachel, we've got lots of parks.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Great. What are they like? Are they full of greenery?
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yes? Near my house there's Victoria Park. There's a duck pond,
a running track for joggers.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
How cool.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Also there's a sports court and a playground for kids
with lots of equipment.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Wow, that's more like a club than a park. That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yes, it's a big park, and whenever the sun comes
out here, everyone's at Victoria Park.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Makes sense. You've got to make the most of it.
With so much to.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Do now, Rachel, does your city have a museum.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Yes, we've got museums, not loads, but a few. There's
one about science and engineering called the Science Museum, which
is really cool. I've been there. Do you have a
university in your city.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Yes, Rachel, there are several universities in my city.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
In fact, Glasgow is known as a university city.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I didn't know that. How interesting.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Yeah, there's the University of Glasgow, which is quite famous.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Uh huh.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
There's also Strathclyde University. Yes, and we have other universities
like Caledonian, and lots of colleges as well.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Oh, that's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Does your city have bookshops?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Yes, we've got some bookshops, though not that many. They're smaller,
not the big, multi story ones, but we've got the basics.
I'm curious though, does your city have any good bakeries
or cake shops.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
We do have them, but they're not as good as, say,
the ones you'd find in Portugal or Brazil. But we
have one bakery called Greg's, which is really popular. H
It's a well known brand, a chain, yes, but not
exactly top tier.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Uh huh. What else do you want to know about
my city?
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well? Does your city have any good restaurants?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yes, we've got some nice restaurants. There are loads of
Italian places because people here love Italian food.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, pasta right.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah. We've also got some burger joints, but the beef
isn't that great, so we don't usually go to those.
Do you have a historic center in your city, like
museums or historic buildings.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Yes, we do. We have the Macintosh Museum, dedicated to
the famous architect Charles Rennie Macintosh from Glasgow. Oh wow,
but sadly there was a fire and everything was destroyed.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Oh no, that's awful.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Yes, but we've also got plenty of other museums like
the Transport Museum, the Museum of Education, and even a
war museum.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
That's a lot of culture, tons of it.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Brilliant.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Does your city have a market, like a municipal one.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yes, we've got something like that. It's funny though I've
never been. I've been to markets in other cities, but
never to the one here. And what about your city?
Do you have any shopping centers?
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Yes, we do, not huge ones, though there's one that
everyone one goes too, but we don't have many like
in bigger cities. Maybe just one or two.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Ah, I see, we've got three here.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yes, and only one of them is really popular people
here tend to do most of their shopping online.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Oh. How interesting.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Online shopping has overtaken their high street. Wow. Crazy?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Anything else you want to ask?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Yes, one more question, Rachel. Does your city have hotels?
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Yes, we've got some hotels. Even though it's not a
huge city. We have a few hotels in a specific area.
They're not huge or fancy though, more like three or
four star places. Yeah, but they're decent enough.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
And to wrap up, I'd like to talk a bit
about my city.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Oh, go on.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Glasgow is known for its mix of Victorian architecture from
the early twentieth century, alongside modern buildings designed in the
Glasgow style by Charles Ray Macintosh. Over time, Glasgow has
also become a hub for art and music, and in
recent years it's gained a strong reputation for its highly
(07:11):
acclaimed restaurants.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
One of the best ways to see and learn more
about Glasgow is by using the city's Circular Bus Tour,
an open top bus that takes visitors around the main attractions.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
That sounds amazing.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
It has twenty one stops around the city, making it
easy to visit the best of Glasgow.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Oh that's fantastic and.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Here we've got cathedrals, art galleries, museums and so much more.
Loads of great restaurants too. As I've mentioned that sounds wonderful.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
I'd love to visit your city one day.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
You're more than welcome.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Well, that's the end of today's podcast. Do you have
anything to add?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Nope? All good.
