The Hidden Glasgow Forums

Unless I've missed it, nobody has mentioned Peter Cannon ("the big noise in Ford's" as the TV Ad said).

Showroom is still there in in Glasgow Road, Rutherglen.

After PC's it became Trust Motors, People's, and now Arnold has it

A friend of mine had proposed the transformation of the public toilets just off Glasford Street into a photographic gallery to the council.....He had the first exhibit all sorted out he knew the last two attendants for the Woman and the Mens toilets. They met on the job and were married and worked ...

One thing I will say in favour of the dykes:

Almost as soon as they took over the running of the GLC (and changed the name to LGBT of course) it became a lot easier to nip in for a Coke.


Tee Hee

I have a PAYG mobile with no details in it which I put in a hidden compartment in my gadget bag when I'm out. It is set to silent. If anyone swipes my bag then Mr Plod should be able to watch where it goes. Ummmm, no offence but don't you think that's a little paranoic, not to mention ill thought o...

Not only have the dykes taken over the whole scene, it seems they are taking over this topic!

Minstrels? With the boat on the outside wall?

Indeed!

Give that man a coconut!

There was a bar at the top of Hope Street on the right hand side going up, at the brow of the hill. I think it was Guys? That I believe was in the fifties/sixties. Bars not mentioned in the posts.

More likely one of the local residents screwing the meter has caused the blackouts.

Talking of allegedly gay bars, I was recently told that the Three Judges in Partick is now gay after 7PM. I can't believe this is true! 8O Hmm, must remember not to grope anybody at 6.59pm then. Another establishment which "turns gay" at a given time each day is, of course, the Court Bar ...
