Excellent Alex. Glasgow Vintage Vehicle Trust Open Weekend 12th/13th October if you're interested.

I CAME FROM 246 THISLE ST 😢

This is an Excellent Video, but I'm afraid the brick building, the corn grain place is not there anymore, it was all taken down many years ago to make way for something else which I don't know ---Sorry .

When did ye go all stabby?

l would have been away with all the paperwork 🙂

excellent :-)

The wee boys at 40:55 ducking out to get their pennies crushed by the last tram. What a treasure

Nothing to beat the Bundy I used to walk from the Flamingo dance hall at two in the morning never felt safe till I was in the Bundy 🎉 ❤

The Bundy Fairhill road 1964

The Jamaica Street Bridge view shown is a few decades on from the large photograph I have , horse drawn trailers and preww1 vehicles. Adverts for OXO for instance.

Talking about " are ye gettin on or aff" , my Grandfather had a phrase which I've remembered since I was about 6 or 7 " here we are for you're going all you in there for here get oot "

Overtaking a tram on the inside was permitted.

The Coronation Trams ( 1937) looking very stylish - they were brought from Liverpool. Same year as the LMS streamlined locomotive Coronation Scot. Used to watch the tram interchange at Gibson Street. The tramcar network extended out of the City. Still can see the embankments / gaps wher there had been bridges. The tramcar Kilmarnock Bogie had four wheels whereas the standard wheel set were 4 x 4. And let's not forget the legendary Clippie. 😮

My wee grandpa spoke highly of benny

Saturday matinee was brilliant I loved it.. kids today don't know what they have missed

The gorbals back then is probably have been the best place in scotland to live...all good people

I was born in the gorbals 1961 in my house no.14 buchan street anyone remember that st

Happy days 🎉❤ apart from the living conditions 😢 but we all survived thanks to our MUMS the backbone of the family 🎉🎉🎉

Sad 😢.

Why did they remove the trams ?

The REAL Glasgow!

It was very sad, he was a good man.

Fantastic. Very well narrated film.x

Kay Carmichael stayed in the house next door 90 Dunning st. for less than a week, never mind 3 month she was nothing but LIAR and that idiot Magnus Magnusson should have stuck to t.v. show Mastermind as we now know , he did not mind as LillyBank did not matter.

Great wee video 👍

I’ve lived in Anderston since 1966 ( born in Dublin) today I’m a stranger here, nobody says hello anymore, my generation are far and few between now😢

Absolute bullshit... rich folk claiming they can understand poverty after living with no means for a couple of weeks. I take it this was a BBC bullshit corporation production? It certainly fucking smells like it.

RIP Jamie

you will notice how tall the police were back then mostly from up north of scotland. however because the majority of people wee smaller than today, the contrast becomes more stark

Jamie Barnes died today😢

I used to live in Earlstone Avenue, and used to go to the Carlton for choir practice on Fridays, happy memories!

My mother was a tram driver. She's probably driving one of the trams in your video.

My cousin wrote and norrated this any idea where I could get a copy of this video

Absolutely beautiful, nostalgic film. Salute to everyone from The Glasgow Heritage Group who put this together in 2012. Thank you for your efforts.

Aye, weel, why is the title half an hauf. There's nae reason why the title cannae be in the Glesca vernacular ie. - A hurl roon Glesca. Gonni stop waaterin doon oor cultural heritage?

Aye, braw video. But seeing that it's aboot oor Glesca cultural heritage, could they no hae got a Glesca budy tae speak the narrative in the Glesca vernacular, insteed o a posh BBC Scotland plonker accent?

The usual fuclin annoying, bland, monotonous, senseless, insipid, distracting back-ground music. Can these video makers no yais their imagination an attach some indigenous Glesca music and songs. No only that, but can we no hae the narrative in the Glesca vernacular?

I remember very well when this happened. My sister went to England at the time George passed away, and brought back a lot of British newspapers since she knew i am a massive Beatles fan. Georges passing was on the cover of every major newspaper, and i remember one of them had a big pic of George on the front cover with the title "Our sweet George" 20 pages of the newspaper were dedicated to George. I also remember when he was attacked and almost killed in his home. I was listening to the radio, and the radio host suddenly stopped the broadcast to say that he had some very sad news, and then went on to tell that George Harrison had been seriously wounded and almost killed by a crazy fan. He passed away only two years later..

👍👍👍

Great video.Cheers👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌸

Bring back the old pollok centre 😮

bitter sweet /happy days in the best ever neighbourhood .now people get traumatized if there is no cream for their coffee

Alex spare us the same thing over and over to make your video longer.

Why did Kay Carmichael have that ludicrous accent? She was from Glasgow, wasn't she? She doesn't sound Glaswegian

That wee auld lady with no pals left around 😭

You can never underestimate the premature loss of John Smith, if he had lived on and become Prime Minister the U.K. would be in a far better state today, his replacement Blair was a poor substitute to say the least.

1885 Grandmother born in Rutherglen area.
