It's great, I especially liked the Necropilis ones, If you have any ones of Nethan Street, Govan, which is where I was brought up, or know where I can get a copy of one of the top end of the street, where we lived up in the attic at 73, that would be great. I have2/3 of the' Street, from the Mitchell, but none of the top end of the Street. I've been trying for 4years for a picture of our attic, but it seems impossible. I even wrote to Thermotank, which were opposite us, but no luck. I'll keep looking on your site. Thanks for your patience. <br />o luck.Marienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606168725856528307.post-69350990022149916672014-06-07T20:40:24.423+01:002014-06-07T20:40:24.423+01:00We want the great paddy's shopping market back...We want the great paddy's shopping market back bring it back<br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17828963707481742660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606168725856528307.post-60017514287527310502014-05-15T21:32:10.982+01:002014-05-15T21:32:10.982+01:00Bring back paddy's market todayBring back paddy's market today Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17828963707481742660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606168725856528307.post-8159538590988106502011-01-10T18:37:52.275+00:002011-01-10T18:37:52.275+00:00Cheers David - I had to shoot off and get sprog so...Cheers David - I had to shoot off and get sprog so missed the visit to George Square alas.

If its erasure is to be regretted at all it is probably in the trend it represents of universal homogenization, but I for one have no idea what it means for the people who used to trade there.Michael Munronoreply@blogger.com
