Brings back so many memories , I grew up on Kinfauns drive .lived in the Drum for 27years lived the last 35 down south .I miss those wonderful days when I was just an innocent wee boy.
I was born in Drumchapel in 1961, I left in 1977 to join the military. I went to Stonedyke and then Waverley, remember Margaret Christie, Leslie Alexandra and Robert Hay, and many others. I've had a fabulous life, many great adventures. The 'Drum' was a hard place to live, but you don't know that until you leave. i took my son back when he was about 10, he couldn't believe it, but it had changed since 77, a lot more rundown. The people still as friendly and positive as always.
I remember my friend lived at the bottom of Ladyloan. I went round to visit and someone had set fire to a motorbike. Kids were taking it to the top of the hill and riding down. It had not tyres, saddle or brakes. It was amazing fun. Can’t believe we did that.
I lived on Drummore Road through the 80s and went to Pinewood. Left Scotland 89 just as I started Waverley. I have mainly good memories of Drumchapel. Was a good place with mainly good people. Certainly down my end was nice. The “HILL” seemed less so. My mum tells me we lived there for a while, but as a toddler, an old man hit me on the head with a cup because I was sat at the door. Maybe explains a lot 😂 I spent so much of my childhood in Bluebell woods. Wouldn’t be able to do that these days.
wow, really emotional. my gran lived in the high flat facing the shopping centre and unfortunately she took her own life there in 1982. I remember the shopping centre well as a kid, the pick n mix at Woolies, Arnotts, the bowling green.! thanks for sharing this. x
I lived in Drumry rd and went to Drumry Primary school when it was just built in 1955 left when my mother passed away in 1961 looking at the pictures it has changed a lot my family moved from Patrick I remember the cold weather lots of snow good fun on the sledges and the chip van transport was bad not many people had cars plenty of open spaces for children good memories
My mum told me that there was a stream running down halgreen avenue when she was a child. I use to stay at my grans. It is all changed now from tenements to houses and my cousin lives there now and he lived here when underneath my gran
We lived in Lochgoin Avenue until 1967, my dad was the janitor of Lochgoin primary School. Then we emigrated to Australia. thanks for Sharing :) Caroline Ferguson
