The Hidden Glasgow Forums

We do tend to find that once they have been skinned and the anorak drops limply to the floor, most folks are awright

Is it like skinning an eel ?

Secure it's head to a wooden post by driving a nail though it, and pull it's skin off with pliers

And you wonder why people don't turn up

How many women turn up?

Hoi, this isnae a dating site!!

Point of Information Sharon. It's on the internet; of course it's a dating site

I'm a shitebag (huge intakes of breath all around in surprise, not...). Also I live in Aberdeen, so its a bit far away to come for a night out.

Right, sometime this summer I will be out. I'd probably be more inclined to meet up for one of the random wanders first, rather than one of the drinks nights.

Usually skint, don't like noisy posery pubs, but I will try to do the next one. Days oot could be good if theres no to much walkin, an a fat lazy bastard!

GK, some peeps around have a very fond opinion of you, get yir arse oot & aboot.
John, I would have said "rotund" some folks on here are a tad uncouth, I know.
MW, put it away son, you make an old man very nervous

I jumped in at the deep end one Friday night & ended up more than pleasantly surprised, I walked in expecting to find HG postered up above the table but alas, no indication of their whereabouts was to be seen. Fortunately Sharon's avatar showed her face (& one or two other wondrous things besides ) So I got to meet PGCC, Fossy, Ronnie, Shazza (bet you hate that) Kitten, McShadders, Lord Sleek & partner, Alan M, Scotia, the Doc & others. The drinks flowed and all was well. I then leapt into the "Old Glasgow Boundary" walk one Sunday & met up again with Sharon, Kitty, Fossy & Ronnie.
Friday nights don't really suit me as I usually work on a Saturday, I do, though, try to make every Sunday trip, the saddest thing is that usually only two or three of us turn up. I had a wonderful day out with Ronnie recently at Cathcart Cemetery, just the two of us, what a marvelous day. Ronnie, like me, is not a big talker, which obviously suits me; I do love meandering in company that is comfortable in silence. On the othe hand, the Doc is a veritable font of knowledge on almost any subject and it is a very rewarding experience to be in his company for a day.
I have now taken part on four or five HG trips, I can honestly, hand on heart, say to anyone who is swithering, come along, join in, if need be you can hang around at the back; I'll join you there, nae problem.

The other thing I should mention is the hoot, it's a pure laugh from start to finish, so many of the folk I've met through HG are comedians, some are of the unconscious variety & the rest just should be.
From meetings, day & night, I have also met John, Cumbo & his brown eyed girl, the utterly ravishing Crusty Bint & too many others whose names my Stella addled brain forgets. Special mention too, to Monument & wee Picasso, the love of life in those two Celtic folk is something to behold. I love a laugh, I love life, I love Glasgow, I love HG, and I hope to see you next Sunday on the G12 creep: wink:

Pee Ess, thanx to a certain person, I was able to take part in a wonderfully snowy day out at the "Verde" building on Glasgow Green, a memory I shall hold close to me, forever. Big thanx to your good self
Be there or be square, HH.

permanently skint - drinkies nights
knackered legs - days oot

Sucks to be me!
