Cracking photos. The girl blowing smoke around 6:00 was my auntie Violet, the photo was from a book about the Gorbals with pics from around the time she was growing up.
The razor teams o auld glesga were mental.teams like the tongs the fleet they were crazy days especially when u see auld documentries way auld men wae scars across there faces like its a badge o honour.
When I see what Glasgow Corporation and all the other idiots did to my City it makes me so angry, Wee Men in Grey Suits ruined our City 😡 from Glasgow 😎👊🇬🇧
Use to visit my mum's parents in Glasgow in the sixties. Big large tenement,no grass just mud everywhere, ( so much for white privilege, white privilege my arse ) large gangs of kids and large packs of wild dogs. The shops windows were all boarded up and you had to look into the door to see what they were selling. Would go and visit my uncle, auntie and cousin over at Easterhouse where the razor gangs hung out, Frankie Vaughn ,a singer, use to go up and try to mentor them. Poverty was everywhere, drink was the big problem then but I've never met more funny and hospitality people in my life, I love them to this day. That's why they need to get rid of Useless asap he has NO love for these people.

Love this - How’s about some caption information Wullie 🤔
👍
@@billy9816 I will start doing captions, mate.
The streets in the city centre look so clean and well kept. Shame it's not the same now. Great pics as always Wullie.
That would be excellent, really great photos, well done . @@wulliechristie5769
The Classic Cinema was my favourite up the stairs to the foyer saw some great movies there
Never forgotten.
I left for Australia in 1992. Can't say I'm homesick but I am nostaligic. It's not the same as when I was a kid
Nice pics, but some descriptions would have been nice?
So much that should/could have been saved.
Very sad.
I dont recall seeing any pics of Port Dundas Wullie, do you have any?
Looking at these Pictures makes Me sad , realising what this City once a Powerhouse in all glory is now a complete and utter Cesspit. Destroyed.
100% agree with you !
Where abouts is the photo at 1:26 taken?
