I’m a 1st generation Aussie.My dad came from Maryhill.He lived at 34 Napiershall Street,Maryhill.He along with my grandparents and uncle migrated to Australia in 1959.All my great grandparents died during the war years and my great aunt had already migrated to Australia in the 1930s,so my grandparents decided to make the move to Australia.

My first home when I was married was just off Maryhill Road in Dalmally Street. What a thriving area it was then, mid sixties, full of butchers, bakers and all sorts of other businesses. We had a nice little two roomed flat and we lived off one wage with rent, electricity, phone and wee holidays. These days the young can’t afford to rent a one room flat.

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.

The soul has gone out of Glasgow. I’m not wishing a return to poverty or scabies or rickets, however we have lost something of our humanity. Our “we are all in this shit together” camaraderie has gone. The wee shops, the CooP, butchers, fruiterers, claes shoaps, City Bakeries, in short, community.

Remember it well. The owner was an ex cop. He was a Chief Inspector at the station in Camperdown St across the road from the brewery in Garscube Rd in the 1960s/early70s. I used to go in the shop for a coffee around 1980. Told a few stories about sending across for a carry out. Him and his wife lived above the shops at Anniesland Cross.
