  1. And you thought The Last Post was bad...
  2. Some found on FB P7 from 1970 My brother is in these next two, P2 1974 P4 1976 and one from 1957
  3. Abercorn Station is seen here Circa 1895 with the Chimney of Mackenzie Brothers Starch Works on Renfrew Road seen in the background.
  4. Glad to see the person who posts the club's media content knows how to spell licence. Licence...NOUN as in " a licence". License...VERB as in "to grant a licence".
  5. Glasgow Rd looking down Gauze St. That's the Old Toll Bar at the junction with Incle St. From 1970.
  6. Hey, my full length dive to my left to keep out a Lexy piledriver was one of the greatest saves ever seen at the old ground.
  7. Don't understand playing Doyle-Hayes ahead of MacPherson or Erhahon.
  8. Here is the review I posted on P&B. Nomadland (2020) Now I like slow movies. Even the ones that move along, glacier-like I can find satisfying. However (puffs cheeks and exhales slowly), woman who worked for company which has closed their manufacturing plant moves around the country in a van which is also her home. She takes menial jobs and forms fleeting relationships with strangers, some of whom are also nomadic and she bumps into them at the next parking lot along the way. That's it, there's nothing deeper. It's more like a documentary as McDormand and Strathairn (the pimp in LA Confidential and Carmela's bit of fluff in the Sopranos) seem to be the only actors; almost every other cast member "plays" someone with their own given name. Best Picture, Director and Best Actress Oscars? Emperor's New Clothes time again.
  9. Woolworth's were absolute bawbags in their treatment of Paisley. They closed the High St store in 1988 but made no attempt to relocate within the town. That meant that the biggest town in Scotland didn't have one of their outlets while hovels like Greenock, Falkirk and Kirkcaldy had a Woolies right up until their demise in 2008-09. They deserved all they got.
  10. 2nd jag scheduled for 17th May at the Hydro. Don't they know that's the day pubs reopen?
  11. Had my first draught pints in 6 and a half months at the outdoor area of "The Keg" in Gilmour St.. Unfortunately they hadn't secured the uprights of the canopies and as soon as the wind got up they started to move...and were eventually taken down before the blew away. Of course as soon as this happened at 1645 it started pissing down and the tables emptied pretty quickly.
  12. I just walked past a "drive-through" ice cream place on Lacy St, it's on the waste ground that used to be Apollo Blinds.
  13. Ice Cream/Dessert Shops must be the new Tanning Salons. In addition to the one in Ladyburn St and the 2 already in Glasgow Rd, there's another opening in Glasgow Rd in the former Chameleon tattoo shop and yet another in the old William Hill opposite Kennedys.
  14. And if you're too lazy to read all of that, here's a precis.
  15. https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2021/04/22/how-episode-26-of-celtic-and-rangers-being-linked-with-a-move-to-england-will-play-out/
  16. Here are the goals Mark Erwin https://streamable.com/ufemx2 Durmus https://streamable.com/90xh1q I missed the penalty.
  17. BBC1, it's on after the ravishing Anne Lundon is finished reading the news.
  18. Didn't JG say recently that his wages were outwith of our budget ?
  19. The Quinns who lived next to me in Gallowhill were John, Robert, Jim and Paul.
  20. Especially after Philip didn't move his engagements when Rangers died.
