Jeff, are you originally from Easterhouse? only i used to go to both the Clare and the Lenny with a girl called Rosemary Zycinski, any relation of yours?
that wiz a wee hockey pitch he wiz filming fae just next to were the janitors house stood played many a game of fitba on that pitch brings back memories on that and in the project went there lunchtime fur a roll n sausage and a kick aboot i went 2 the lenny fae 1991 tae 1995 class school and jack duffy wiz still teaching there even then.
I live in Forglen Street and you're right, it always seemed out of place compared to the rest of the streets in the area. It hasnt changed over the decades, looks the same and has most of the same residents. Such a quiet street that the gritters forget to grit here in the winter.
I had similiar experiences, this time on the Edinburgh Rd border with Barlanark. Was attacked by 5 or 6 neds led by 'Mad Frankie' who claimed that as I lived in Bartiebieth Rd I was a member of the Torran Toi. I wasn't but depsite my heartfelt denials I still ended up with a bloody nose.
Enjoyed the story! I was born in Duntarvie Crescent, and I attended Saint Scholasticas (Mrs Downy-Head Teacher); but left Easterhouse for East Sussex before actually attending the 'Lenny'. I went to visit my old school some years ago, to find it levelled!! Lots of memeories. I enjoyed this this vid v much. Thanks.
I don't know when you were at the lenny but I remember...big Jack, Tommy Kirk (P.E) Mr Sheilds (P.E) Mr Corrigan (Jellyneck) Mr Broslan, Miss Duffy (Yummy) Mr Doyle (History) Mr Wolfe (Classics) Wee Burnsie (Science) Mr Jack (Techi) Wee Foster (Techi) Kevin Kelly (Fungi) from Modern Studies, Mr Preston (Modern Studies) Mr Marron (Maths) Mr Mc Fadden (English) Miss McLauglin (Home ece) Miss Murdoch (Science) Gerry Kelly (Art)....prob loads more but ran out of characters lol
