St.Ricky Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Growing up in the 60s for me was the Music of the Stones and the Beatles. Avoiding street fights. Playing Rugby and competing in Athletics. Discovering Girls, Black and Tans made with Sweet Stout. Leaving home, University and starting both a job and a family. Do remember the Geeg or Bogie as we called it. Big wheels at the back were definitely cool. A Fab era to grow up in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isle Of Bute Saint Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Was born and lived at the top end of Chapelhill road Hunterhill which was made for geegs. Exploring Dykebar woods with its swing ropes over the burn that would snap now and again lol. The onto Donaldswood road at the bottom end of Glenburn. At the back of the house was the wood for exploring after that full size football pitches. At the front of the house more football pitches of the school. We used to swim in Stanely dam during the summer while Geleniffer breaes were another great attraction. Got to 16 me and my mates would go to Shuffles dance hall in Sauchiehall Street now the garage. Around the corner Punk was about to arrive with Paisley being right at the heart of it due to Glasgow banging Punk bands. Hung around with quite a few posters on here during that period you know who you are great guys great times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Sanchez Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) Round my way geeg builders diversified into crossbow manufacturing. Two bits of wid, two protruding nails connected via elastic bands, and sharpened clothes pegs as ammo.
