The Hidden Glasgow Forums

The above description seems to suggest that you would access the park at the side of the David Wilson Homes development on Ferry Road and exit it at the junction of Sandyford Street and Gilbert Street . It looks to me as though there may be another entrance/exit at the junction of Old Dumbarton Roa...

Thanks for the clarification, Josef. I use Photobucket so I'll bear this in mind in future when uploading.

It is too. Could you post photos in the 600 x 404 size though, please, Rab, so we can see it without having to scroll off to the right? Ta. Josef, is 640 x 480 now to be the official maximum format on this forum, rather than the 800 x 600 it has always been up till now? If so, then I will obviously...

Hello Denekaca If Sergeant Bisset was your grandfather's uncle, then surely that makes him your great-great-uncle, not your great-grandfather as you seem to imply in your post? This is not a family history site so it is most unlikely that somebody on here will have any knowledge of your ancestor. Th...

Glad to see that people have such good memories! But where are all the women? I'd be interested to know where gay women socialised years ago. Most of my lesbian friends don't go out in Glasgow because it's so dire nowadays. I used to frequent the Carnarvon Bar on St. George's Road in the early 'nin...

Cats love cardboard boxes. Newsprint seems to fascinate them as well. If there's a newspaper lying on the settee a cat will explore it and then curl up on top of it. Maybe something to do with the smell, or the texture, or the crackling sound the paper makes. Perhaps a combination of all three. But ...

Sorry, I never bothered following the link so didn't read the paragraph about Yorkhill Park. I was simply relying on my (rather deficient) memory. Of course there is a railway line running past the park, I'd forgotten about that. And from the state the place is in it's quite clear that it's not bein...

Glesga Steve mentioned that Yorkhill Park should no longer be on the list. I'm sure this used to be a Council run park but I read some years ago that part of the ground was to be sold off to a developer for private housing. A fence was put up effectively cutting the park in two. However nothing has ...

On second thoughts, Yoker is not in Glasgow, is it?

I'm sure Yoker falls within the Glasgow City Council area. It's not part of Clydebank if that's what you were thinking of.

Haven't seen Plantation Park being mentioned (and tut tut Josef, you should have got that one). I couldn't remember what it was called, V. :oops: I knew it wasn't Kinning Park Park... Quite a lot of people think it's just called Kinning Park, but that's the name of the district, called after the Ki...

Get your name down.

Thanks for asking Josef, but I won't be there this time, I'm afraid. Otherwise engaged.
