The Hidden Glasgow Forums

Smeato will be eaten alive the minute his que cards run out of answers I liked what he was saying but it was all scripted unfortuneatley.

Smeaton might well be getting set up by this rather unknown 'Jury' mob but is he really any worse than the selectively hand picked candidates of the two main parties? Two dudes who it would seem have never had a real job in their lives, and apart from that have never got anywhere near kicking an Ar...

Its a crazy world we live in, celebrity and politics, never the twian should meet, ever. I don't mind Smeato having his hour of fame but there are many issues in the NE of Glasgow that the guy will have no idea about. I'd like to ask him how he plans to tackle the poverty and generational unemployme...

I thought this was a great idea as you don't get a book to teach you about kids. :) Were you mentoring or organising it? I'v...

I'm glad to hear about the mentoring project. :D It's a brilliant way of encouraging people to get to know each other and find out how much they have in common. Also to realise just how much hardship and danger so many people undergo to escape their own countries, and how much they miss the people ...

I was looking over some of the threads here and reminded myself about some of the not so good reputations Glasgow has. I think its a shame and it's the same old story about bad news sells. That Fred McCauley is a pratt talking constantly about neds, no wonder people get their backs up with these up ...

I can't get a closer look but that map is great. I'm not sure now if I've got the right spot so I'm going to go back and try to pin it down.

Cheers, for not being nice to strangers, you guys can pull it out of the bag

:), if I'm ever after one, I'll give you a shout.

Many thanks for the help everyone. The pictures and map are brilliant, I'm off for a closer look

Hi all , I'm new. I came across this site when I was looking for a place in the campsies to find fossils. Today I found fossils at a place above Lennoxtown, in the fields beyond the telephone mast just right of and up the Crow Road. I also saw a buried circular stone wall further on my way back near...
