Check out the pure gemmy trike, and the dog (or cat?) in the shade under the van.
Thanks to Christine from my work for bringing in the photo (that's her big brother with the hobby-horse), and to my other colleague John for his digital work on what was a tiny photo.

Would have been a good one to include in the book with a collection of photos of old Pollok.
Does your friend have any more? Would love to see them! I will try and take a photo and post it up later. I have a few I need to sort through. I have a photo of Peat Road at Priesthill Road to post up.

BTW congrats on your return to the Chambers. Promotion must be in order. How about a sensible approach to the licensing board.
I take it public announcements will be made on Thursday but will be decided in the Steps beforehand?
