Was in The Drovers, The Wee Man and Heilan Jessie 4 days ago. Cheapest round was a pint, a vodka (35ml) and diet coke for £5.60 (in Heilan Jessie). And Rumblin Tum for breakfast.
That was grim. At the beginning, the dirt, the rubbish on the streets, the poor roads and pavements, the vandalism, the pure lack of care for their own environment was astonishing. Then, coming into Gallowgate, the large, stately buildings, cathedrals of commerce, the history of the place, What a contrast! The squalor of Central Scotland was one of the reasons I wanted to get out of the place. I thought there must be something better than this. There is. Forty years on, it seems little has changed, which makes me glad I escaped when I did. Why do Glaswegians put up with this?
Thank you for the walk, T S W C. That area (and many others} are total shite holes. *Let Glasgow Flourish?* What a joke. I lost count of the Walking Stick scammers, problem less, grinning with their 'free' taxpayers' funding. Stay free. Ex-Springburn Boy and Man, who forever grafted, first as an Apprentice Marine Engineer at Stephen's of Linthouse, March 1967, ending up with a heart attack and subsequent heart surgery, 2005.

An oxter of a place.

Because they voted in the corrupt SNP
I agree.....
This is what we pay (council) taxes for. For this abominable landscape to stay decrepit. SNP need ousted.
Glasgow council should be ashamed of themselves
Glaswegians should be ashamed of themselves

PS. Gallowgate by name. Gallowgate by nature? [Rhetorical]
Dirty city and dangerous
