Why was Glasgow Scotland known as the dear green place?
The name Glasgow was originally the Gaelic "Gleas chu", which means "dear green place". It wasn't always an industrial and commercial centre and many centuries ago it was but a village.
It was green because of its wet climate. That's why the cotton industry started in the west, the damp climate kept the cotton from drying out!

What is Glasgow like to live in?
Excellent. Scotland is a very friendly place and Glasgow is no exception. It has great universities (Strathclyde Uni and Glasgow Uni are the best of them, but it depends on which subject you do to which one is better), therefore it has great nightlife. It also has fantastic restaurants, cafes, a brilliant music scene, lots of nice parks etc. Housing is generally good, but like any large city, if you go slightly further out to the suburbs you will find more family-friendly housing like detached 3/4 bedrooms etc as opposed to the city centre which is mostly flats/apartments. There are also lots of large companies with offices in Glasgow so whatever your field of work, you should be able to find a job. It's also not as expensive as Edinburgh which is good. Yet it's only an hour from Edinburgh so you can go there at the weekend, or take a relaxing trip to Loch Lomond which is also very close. There are plenty shopping high streets and shopping centres in Glasgow too, and some close by such as the huge shopping centre in East Kilbride or the new one, Silverburn.
What is the international fax code to dial from Australia to Glasgow?
In general, you dial a fax number on a fax machine exactly the same way you would dial the same number on a landline telephone at the same location.
The telephone country code for the United Kingdom is +44, and the area code for Glasgow is +44 141.
The default international access prefix for outbound international calls from Australia is 0011. However, there are other prefixes for certain specific purposes; for example, the prefix 0015 routes the call over the Telstra network, with settings optimised for fax transmission.
(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)
