Probably one of the most historic cities in Britain
It angers me when old buildings are destroyed
My old primary school from 1968-73. Known colloquially as "Sir Jake's".
I live right across the river from here – along with the burgh hall it was what I could see from my window. A shame it's gone now. There's a video or two on YT where urban explorers go inside.
In 1982, my parents brought me cassette tape back from their visit to Glasgow and that was on it, the title was The Patter. Ironically, my cousins from Glasgow had come to live with us for the summer.
A big thank you to our Resident Historian.
So true my friend 🏴 the good old days 👌
the subtitles just can't cope!!!
