Ma Maw used to get lines for Goldbergs and Stirling Stevens. How we got claes. We did pay them off weekly on a Friday night when the tally man came round. Them and the Provvie wumman.
Folk forget whit our maws an das went through tae build a life for us etc Noo we're gieing haunoots tae 3rd world dregs fliating in,an oor ain golk go hameless!
I had a Style card (a sort of store/credit card) in the 80's. I had to go to Goldbergs to make payments. I knew a guy who started his scaffolding business with a Provvie loan!
@ 11:44 - Clyde Model Dockyard in the Argyle Arcade, Buchanan Street/Argyle Street. 😀 Visited it regularly in the early 60's, and then Tam Shepherds in Queen Street. Memories!
Corpy Bus, Green White Gold, a big Rangers fan i knew would meet his pals from Northern Ireland over for the match at Ibrox at Central Station after travelling over on the boat from Larne and they would walk into Union St on way to Undergrohnd at St Enochs and all they would see was 'Mechanical Tricolors' , street full of buses same colors as Irish Republic flag! Drove them nuts!
The boots clock is now mounted on the inside wall of the church in helenvale st, the hands permanently set at 11 o'clock next to all the remembrance day material.
