They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

I worked in the basement here in the early 1970s in the computer centre until it moved to a purpose built centre on Brunswick Street. 2 shifts a day, one, 9 til 5, the other 2 til 10. Still remember it fondly.

How time changes things. When I lived in Glasgow, 50+ years ago, there were no traffic lights on Kelvin Way. No need. I remember the student's charity parade going along here in January of each year. And the taxis taking the kids to the coast. Damn I'm getting old.

I have pledged to read but being a Scot who lives in France I had to tell a wee fib about my local council.😂

I was 19 when this photo was taken and I honestly don't remember it. Then I realised why. I lived in Gibson Street, Kelvinbridge, worked across the road from home and any time I wanted to go 'into town' I took the subway. I had no reason to pass through Charing cross and didn't until it was done.

So you're 9 hours behind me. When I get up, you'll just be going to bed. You're the furthest away person I've ever communicated with! I live in the south of France.

In my twenties I had a boyfriend who lived there. One and only time I got to see the inside. The flats were beautiful.

European here. Why can't you all just go to a voting station and drop your vote into a ballot box? That's how we do it here. There is no mail-in vote. All votes must be cast in a voting station. It works very well for us. Never any problems.

I can go to the doctors and dentist without paying a penny. I can even have a major accident and I pay nothing. So, my American friends, get behind universal health pay. The cost is minimal and it benefits all.

Having read all the posts over the last months by Americans bemoaning universal health pay, can I just have my pennyworth. I have lived in two states that have universal health pay and I have NEVER felt done by. I don't even know what the state takes. Cont'd..

As an owner of several cats, I have found that female cats appreciate belly rubs whereas male cats abhor them. I have learned, over the years, to avoid giving belly rubs to male cats. My hands have thanked me for it. Sir Michael will not attack you for a belly rub.

...hence why we were shipped off to Garnetbank once every 4 weeks.(OK. Really it's address was Buccleuch Street but there was an entrance in Hill Street.)

Used to have lunch there every fourth week of term. I went to the Glasgow High School for Girls which was at the top of the hill in, wait for it, Hill Street. The school hall wasn't large enough for all the girls to have lunch, Cont'd

Of course, you're right. Just goes to show what the memory can do. And I just noticed that the Shish Mahal is next door. When I left Glasgow it was in Gibson Street directly opposite where I lived with my parents at number 44.

Was there a building adjoining this one? Maybe it's just my imagination, but I don't remember the Doublet being on a corner. Mind you I left Glasgow in 1974 and have only been back a couple of times and then not in the Park road area.

I remember the Kennedy assassination as well. I was 12. That Christmas I received a 'teenage' doll (remember them? Before Barbie.) and called her Jacqueline after Mrs Kennedy. I, too, will get out the champagne when Trump goes. Positive thinking, LK, positive thinking. He will go at some time.

Colin, are these still individual houses or have they been divided into flats? I only ask because they seem awfully big for an individual house in this time of smaller families and no servants,

Pendant here. I don't think this is a flute. It sounds more like a penny whistle. Beautifully played none the less.

And you came to France on one of the hottest weeks for a long time. I know it's daft but I'd give a lot to have just one day with rain and to be able to switch off the air conditioning.
