[DjTokenMusic]

[whirlingtamthebam]

Paddy, we tend to look at the past through 'rose-tinted spectacles'. Times were tough for many people then, as they are now.

All the best.

[rhubodach]

Nice post thanks, great memories, Granny lived on John Knox St. I remember the high walls of Duke St. prison and listening to my echo underneath the Bridge of Sighs. Granny would give me threepence to get " two sheeps tails for the soup " from the butcher.

In my teens I spent time chasing a fair lassie in Partick and Whiteinch,,oh she was lovely. Then in '65 I was off to Canada, on my own at 19. I loved old Glasgow, barely found a trace of it when I was home 5 years ago, enjoyed this clip.

[mzbikes]

the wee lassies in the gorbals like my maw who walked across the suspension bridge in the "green "to school at charlotte st convent. The boys in the school photie look like myself but they all did.

The castlebank vans "mummy here comes the castlebank man -terribly posh -

This haunts me. I am living in Peterborough England and i was born here. My heart is in Glasgow. I am a Scot by blood. It is my right, my birth right. Am i wrong?

[alexandrina07]

[misssmiler1]

Dear Alexandrina07 i meant that i was born in Peterborough. My father and all his side were Scots. I adore Scotland. My heart is there. One day i will move up and i shall feel as though i am coming home. I have tartan blood. Your message warmed my heart and thank you.

[slitmjst]

I emigrated to Australia in 1962 and my kids were born here, but Scotland is in their blood and I can bring tears to their eyes when sing them Flower of Scotland.

and Old scot's mother mine. But they are also proud Aussies and revel in their duel heritage.

[misssmiler1]

So they should too sir. Now i am choked up. Wherever we are in the word the tartan blood flows proud. God bless you and your family.
