The Hidden Glasgow Forums

Delmont,lockdown sure seems to have thrown up a fair amount of mad stuff happening.having not really ventured out for the past 3 months I really could be doing with a wee trip somewhere just to see some different scenery but that will happen when the time is right for us all.i consider myself to be quite fortunate as I have a garden to sit in and I live next to the canal for walks and cycling.

Passed a terraced house recently with something in three of its windows.
In one window was a skeleton dressed in NHS scrubs, another had a large Pokemon figure and in the last one was an alien.
They had flags up to support NHS attached to front of house.

I'm sure it will be a talking point and maybe even make a few people smile.

Im not a builder, plumber, tiler, plasterer or joiner but during lockdown I went mad and rebuilt my ensuite toilet and shower room;

bravo sir,bravo.

You actually made that look easy BT but then again, I think you can turn your hand to anything. So I've got this toilet and kitchen that's needing to be redone.......

Well done Banjo, get your mask and get on at the terminus otherwise you'll be waiting for ages for a bus to use the new pass.

I've got a few years yet before I get one and by that time, I suspect they will change the goalposts on me and I'll need to be 99 with a letter from my maw and paw....

Aye mine arrived the other day. So 2 new auld yins oot there.
Just no in the mood to queue behind the eejits down here who don't know what a mask is.

Also I have hair again and can't see the bald patch. Must be something to do with no being to a barbers since February. Last time I was this hairy was at school. Grandkids much amused with hairy grandad.

Just had mine cut, having not been near scissors since February. Likewise, it hadn't been that long since school. My eyebrows were meeting my fringe.

I feel positively light-headed now. Still, I'm grateful that I've still got a full head of hair at my age.

I'm as bald as a coot, so never had to worry about missing the barbers as I do my own every Saturday morning. Clippers on 0 and one closely buzzed heid shines through. Saved me a fortune on barbers, shampoo and conditioner and I never get dandruff...

Not really going awfy well for the big chap I'm afraid. However, he's still managing (just) to tolerate his treatments and numerous various other nasties, so don't be ruling him out just yet.

Good stuff tell him to hang in n there and get back online pronto and give him our bestest wishes

Good to hear news about Doorstop.
I'm sure everyone on here is thinking of him in these strange times.
