I\u2019ve heard a\u00a0genuine Glaswegian refer to Southside, and they weren\u2019t an estate agent. It does sound like those artificial areas concocted by marketing agencies to Manhattanise a place \u2013 like NoLetUp, DoReMe, or Nuneaton North Central. In fact, it refers to the area east of the M77, south of the M74, and if you make it to Giffnock, turn around, for there be garden gnomes.
