Glasgow Kiss
A Glasgow Kiss is a greeting that is not exclusive to Glasgow. Indeed many a Glasgow Kiss has been given in Greenock, Glenrothes and even Geilenkirchen (though Geilenkirchen Kiss doesn’t have the same ring to it). A Glasgow Kiss is given by striking the forehead against the beneficiary’s head. Targeting the nose provides the most pleasing effect.
