The Hidden Glasgow Forums

It is with the deepest regret and the heaviest heart that I write this reply, but to get a house/flat, try the following; refugee, pregnant, homeless, drug addict and alcoholic. Before you jump on the bandwagon and suggest that I am racist, sexist or anything - my work involves getting people homes ...

I want the return of the Monster Raving Looney Party!

Does anyone know the ranking order of Glasgow's citizens? I know that the Office of Lord Provost is number one, followed by some others from the Dean of Trades House, Merchant House and Provincial Grand Master Mason of Glasgow. Anyone know how the ranking order works, who they all are and where the ...

I never went to dinner school at Primary, for home was only a short walk away. I did venture a couple of times to the dinner hall in Secondary school and thereafter used the services of the chip van outside the school or the local bakers. School dinners at Cleveden were not the best, but by some of ...

I could give a huge long list here but the people are 'ordinary' not on television or stage and are alive and kicking (unfortunately). Some people call them colleagues others well..... However from the television there are a couple that I could do quite happily; Carol Voderman, Janet Street Porter, ...

Looks like instead of organising tunnel trips to derelict or disused tunnels or a jaunt around Hamilton - a group tour from Hidden Glasgow could go through and for the sake silliness and fun, maybe even for a good cause - have a celebratory birthday cake for HG's 5th birthday! I can imagine some poo...

Suede ones actually....blue too.

Strange and wonderful things don't just happen in this City (Glasgow) they happen on this board too. Sometimes a single, seemingly senseless post comes in and can make such a difference to those reading. The poster none the wiser that their contributions have had a dramatic effect. Sorry to go off t...

Walking through the tunnel can be a daunting experience and to be honest, it is not one that I would truly recommend unless you are accompanied. I have been through many times, mainly cycling through but had to get off half way up the steep hill and walk - it wasn't very friendly at all. However, I ...

8 years ago Tom Russell was the DJ at our Wedding Reception. Our own DJ let us down so we scoured the Yellow Pages and his advert said, 'as used by Radio Clyde.' We had never seen him, heard of him and we knew nothing about him. When he turned up at our wedding - many of the guests thought he was an...

Now that's the best laugh I have had all year and it happened on this forum! Alex - I have been begging the council for over 2 years for new bins, dustbins (actually asked them for wheelies but due to H&S couldn't get them - before you reply the truthful answer is cost and nothing to do with H&a...

Best I've heard is 'give me two minutes, I'll be with you in a second.'

Perhaps perfected the art of time travel?

Where is this?

I went towards the town last week as I had to head into George Square to pick someone up from the Station. (I am terrible at remembering street names) So there I was heading towards the the Tron Church (?) through along West George Street (?) and because my car has a digital speedo - I clocked up an...

I would imagine that the response (if any) will be along the line of "cannot comment, individual matters, etc etc."

Do you honestly expect an open and honest answer on this topic?
