I was born and bred in Maryhill and would always have said Garbraid Avenue was Maryhill rather than Wyndford, and certainly never Kelvindale.

When I was in 1st / 2nd year St Columba's in Hopehill Road, we were introduced to computer programming and attended half day classes onc...

Waverley 2001

Hi folks, New on here but reading the posts and viewing the pics encouraged me to post a few of my own. These were taken in 2001 when I took my two sons "Doon the water" on the Waverley. It was a cracking day as you can see. Maryhill Lad http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v225/mccaba/Waverley%202001/...
