@flippdit7385 sorry I don't know anyone with that name but there a group on Facebook memory's of Wishaw, you have a better chance there mabe, which area did they stay ?

I'd hazard a guess at being on the coastline (Aurthurs Seat!!! with a quick image search)

hi, im not sure what that is ??????

@peterrussell5216 it's nice car just remember if you need help am happy to come out to you I have a normal pull start that we could fit on your car and get her running again

Cluck off and stop squeezing my belly you clucking clucker ha ha ha

Cheers tam been about 50 night trips with our Shannon, in last 5 years first time we've seen it lol amazing

Balisamo lol

That's amazing I love the song about wishy, I sent it to my auntie and uncle who emigrated many moons ago to NJ, they used to visit wishy to see us all, she loved it also, but I never new Peter Nardini wrote it, and also never new he was art teacher, you have made Google him and he was actually my art teacher at St Aidens ha ha ha and probably the only teacher who gave me a complement about my work adviceing me to stay on because I had a talent, he said, did I listen did I wit, ha ha ha Ended up a joiner so still working with my hands, small world, hope yer well Rob,

@@peterrussell5216 Wow! What a co-incidence. Peter's in his 70s now, still lives in Lanarkshire and is still a prolific painter and songwriter; and his daughter's still in California. There are quite a few of his quirky songs, mostly sung in a Bob Dylan style on KZbin. Thanks for the memories...

Thanks for that, I'll go have a look, new he was a teacher but never new he was singer or songwriter, I've made a few videos mostly scenic ones but had to do one of Wishaw it's had a fair few veiws and alot of comments are from people who don't live here anymore, it's just a hobby me and my daughter have, magic for getting me out and about and great for the heid ha ha ha cheers Rob

Me too, is that you Rab? Kenny McP here!

@@kmickp1166 Hey Kenny. Looks like my last reply with email was deleted. Aye, Rab fae North Dryburgh. Remember "Officer" ? Actually in Wishaw right now with my wife, visiting from Tennessee where we now live. Trying to private message you, but I don't see how to.

@@renwick_ro67267 hi Rab, great to hear from you, small world indeed! Sure I remember Officer, still laugh at the thought of the Simp stories! I’m living in Prague but was in Nashville earlier this year, just on vacation! Yeah I cant see how to DM on here, ru on Twitter?

@@renwick_ro67267 hi Rab r u on social media & we can figure out a DM to exchange details and catch up? Sent an earlier message but not sure if it arrived 🙈

Yeah I replied twice, & they haven”t appeared🙈 yeah remember the “Officer days” well ! Are u on Twitter or Linked in & we can exchange contact details! I am based in Prague these days so haven’t spent much time back in Wishaw

Thanks seems a long time ago lol

Hi there, Paver you from London ha ha ha I know pather well, was born in 1970, stay 1 minute walk under railway bridge to paver, cheers

@@peterrussell5216 well my mum was born in motherwell then moved to the paver..she left around the 1970 period..good for me she did lol

It's "Pather", not Paver, but pronounced similarly.

@@renwick_ro67267 my apologies.

Thank Q

I'm sorry I don't I built it by just measuring and cutting, and this we sketch at very start of video

OK thanks anyway

I would if I could but it came from my head, and I built it as I went, sorry

Thanks

Hi thanks buddy, I've not raced for few years, I used to use project cars, wats the best sim if I were to get back into it, I'm loving flight sims in vr at moment but looking for bit of change.

@@peterrussell5216 Dirt Rally in VR bro....

@@peterrussell5216 Soz had to pop out so short message earlier, Bro I bought Star Wars Squadron for the PSVR, And for a little change from sim racing it's perfect lol, I'm stuck on a level tho so not been on it for few weeks but still if I wants a blast in the VR, Even tho it's only a PSVR Star Wars is surprisingly good... But yeah Dirt Rally got be really good in VR, Best sounding sim racing game there is, Dirty Rally 2 is still a top sim game that's for sure....

Wishaw on holiday never herd that before ha ha remember wishy baths, and bellhaven Park still there in video, glad you enjoyed, where do you stay now,

@@peterrussell5216 i now live in Largs just over the hills from Kilbirnie

Now Largs that's a holiday destination, was there Monday and Tuesday last week monday at millport, Tuesday went to ayr but stopped at the fish works on way home for an amazing fish suppers, 1 of my previous videos was shot in Largs and going across to millport on ferry, was a beautiful day

Used to go putting (mini golf) in that (Belhaven) Park, and paddling in the kiddies pool (both now gone). They knocked the Wishae Baths down years ago (don't know why). Baird's department store is long gone, but the building is still there, as is the former gatehouse to the Coltness Estate on the corner of Kenilworth Avenue where the taxi rank was (public toilets).

I can understand that. My father came from Hamilton in Lanarkshire. He went to Sydney and left 2 wives and children. 1 in Glasgow and the other in Sheffield. He married my mother in Sydney and she never found out about the 2 previous. If she did she never said. He was always a difficult man and a very good singer and was on TV in Sydney in 1956 when TV just started. But he always had a bad temper and if any band members played the wrong note he would give them a Glasgow kiss.

Boo effing Hoo. Find a therapist 😂

I actually made it about a year ago, with mini 2, I think it was your video that gave me the inspiration, your a bad influence ha ha your right not worth the hassle, cheers

Thanks very much, but I'm her auld papa lol

The stag bar where we got to watch Bruce Lee on video (amazing at the time) ha ha ha 70 ish

Mackay and Jardine's garage at the bottom cross also long gone (was later a Tesco and now flats I think).

​​​@@peterrussell5216 Lots of pubs used to show films when those big screen TVs first came out. Until the copyright inspectors started coming round, and that was the end of that.

Yup, I remember that too.

Only about £250 for matirials and alot of hrs work

Thanks

Up yer hale ya screamo!

Aye, St. Aiden's was a Roman Catholic school and as for Larkhall, they used to say "what's green and lives in a tree? A Catholic in Larkhall" 😅

that was the first question my dad asked my mum in 1944, all was ok !! but it was still a questioned , things don't change, however my cousin married a member of a rather green family, and they are still very much in love, i miss them greatly, love conquers all !! sorry your mad orange cousin, love you and miss you all, jim little

I was 11 in 1981, just about to hit the parish Disco, ha ha also grew up in wishaw flats, cheers for your comments bud, 👍

Hi! My family belonged to the then Chalmers Church when George Griffiths was minister, my family were regular attenders but me not so much. I was in my teens then, long hair, motor bikes and all. Occasionally when I heard via my mum that Georges (I think it was a James motorcycle) had broken down I would pop in to the manse unannounced, longhair, leather jacket etc. on my 650cc Triumph and fix the problem for him. I often wondered what he thought of this renegade kid who didn't go to church but was happy to help him out by fixing his bike. I'm now 83 living in New Zealand. Cheers

Aye, that's what the auld yins used tae cry it.

Cheers. I made it for friend who stays in London, hadn't seen Wishaw in years. It was made in days before masks social distancing and covit. No be long till there back lol

A year in your eye? Might want stay aff the whiskey pal...
