Nov 15 2007, 9:21 AM EST can you tell me where the sports shop was situated as I think it may provoke a thought as I recalled a pub heading upward to Balgrayhill rd on the side where woolworths & the record shop were & recall at time it was grey with blue tiling on outside wall with an amber glass entry Door?think it may have been the one you mention ????was Thomsons? could be wrong of course as time was changing fast by late70s I feel I can see this pub butcannot see the sports shop?

Mar 2 2008, 12:37 PM EST Still on the subject of pubs though in a different location. Does any one out there have a photo of the Hawthorn Bar at the corner of Hawthorn St and saracen St as my old Granny live above it for 40 odd years and the rest I think. My other Gran lived opposite the boundry Bar. Do you find this valuable? |
