Clydebank Through A Lens: Recreation, entertainment and leisure: Café culture [excerpt]

[PURPLEBEATTIE1]

I grew up in Clydebank and my dad who was a policeman in Clydebank in the 60's and 70's used to talk about being on Points Duty when the yards came out.1000's of people all leaving work at the same time.I remember being a bit scared as a kid at the numbers of people all running out the yard gates.

@PURPLEBEATTIE1 Exactly! When you consider that most of the town's population worked in either the yard or Singer's, going home time would've involved a sea of people.

Nice to see the old Woolworths again - I used to spend my pocket money in there !
