The Hidden Glasgow Forums

I've been fortunate enough over the years to have had very little aggression, but I agree it's becoming worse. It seems to be as bad as I found it in the very early 90's, but at that stage, I was still young thing and probably an easier looking target for a sob story. I did, however, the other week ...

Just a guess, but do they not have an internal battery so that, in the event of a power cut, the clock doesn't need resetting?

Now see the Blue Street signs - Belmont Street has one as well, maybe this could be one of these projects where HG could find the streets in blue? Anyone know where, why, when or how the blue signs started? Here's a couple of blueys I've captured since reading this. Apologies for the quality of thi...

I've been living in Glasgow full time for nearly 25 years. Maw's side of the family all Glaswegians, so very familiar with the city beforehand anyway. Southside - barely know it! Not seeking to besmirch southsiders, but that is generally how it goes! Having said that, I worked in Castlemilk for a fe...

I think a friend of mine's cat has just had kittens, or is up the duff again. I'll ask and revert.
