I grew up in Glasgow in the 60s/70s and the manhunt was enormous. Even my dad was interviewed as a suspect. But he didn't take it personally as apparently literally tens of thousands of men of a certain height, hair-colour, age, etc were being interviewed to simply eliminate from police enquiries.

My gran once told me that she suspected that she was an unwitting survivor of Bible John. She said one time she was dancing at the Barras with a guy, who on reflection matched the description of Bible John and he unsettled her at somepoint so much that she left early with friends. No idea if this was true, but my Gran was not one for making up false stories and she only told this story once when she was very, very drunk. Which i only seen happen 3 times

They are asked by the guards to declare their religious allegiance, Catholic or Protestant? "Neither" says the confused tourist, "I'm an atheist". The guards looked confused for a few seconds before responding, "Catholic, or Protestant atheist?"

ETA - I grew up in Glasgow but I've lived and spent time in Edinburgh. The latter is a far more interesting place, historically speaking, and aesthetically. Edinburgh is a beautiful place. But my bias is Glasgow having grown up there. I also lived in Dundee and there was always a friendly sort of banter about Edinburgh being better than Glasgow and Dundee being better than Edinburgh...but they always said that Glasgow was more fun for shopping and nights out and the people were more friendly. But the truth is no matter where you go in the UK, the people are generally always nice and welcoming and happy to warn you about the animals who live 15 miles away with a wry smile on their faces, it's all banter and there's little animosity, really.

Okay, so based on my mother & grandmother's stories, back in the 60s sanitary pads were not exactly as, shall we say, "inconspicuous" as they are now. They involved a huge, nappy-like pad that had to be attached to a rubber belt with hooks. So not only were they miserably uncomfortable, the outline of the belt & pad could often be seen through clothes. And extras couldn't exactly be discreetly stashed away in a handbag, because they were so big. So, it seems likely to me at least that he might have just looked for the telltale outline of the belt, hooks & giant pads? Alternately, IMHO, it could've just been a process of elimination: since women back then we're even more reluctant than today to report attempted sexual assaults, he might have assaulted multiple women, and only killed the ones who turned out to be menstruating? (Or if not outright assaulted, he might have tried to seduce multiple women, and killed the ones who spurned his advances due to having their periods at the time?) That also seems as though it could be a possibility, given his obsession with biblical morality & judgment- if he were obsessed with biblical sexual/gender mores, it seems entirely possible that he might have viewed menstruating women as "cursed," or "unclean."

God, Glasgow is so much better these days 😅😅 Im a Glaswegian and it was definitely alright when I was growing up in the 90s - today its pretty safe and friendly for a large city. There are still parts of the city here and there that I wouldnt go to as a visitor or tourist - but thats true for any city that size. The city centre and the west end are grand and even parts of the east end and formerly more rundown places like Partick are getting kind of hipster and studenty and gentrified. The south side is mostly fine, btw. Some part, like the Gorbals, are a little run down but places like Cathcart, Rouken Glen, Clarkston & Newton Mearns are pretty posh. NED btw stands for 'Non-Educated Delinquent' Also Celtic is pronounced 'Sell-Tick' And yes, there is a significant rivalry between Glasgow and Edinburgh. Edinburghs very pretty but Glasgow is the better city, no contest - the folk are much more down to earth, chatty and friendly. Also, when Glaswegians ask "Rangers or Celtic?" Just say "Partick Thistle" and they'll just chuckle, shake their head and leave you alone 😅😅

When I was on study abroad, I spent a few days in Glasgow. While there I took a coach tour of the Scottish highlands. On our way out of the city, we passed one of the football stadiums and the tour guide told us about the Old Firm. He then told us that on game days now when you go into the stadium the security check you for knives "and if you don't have one, they'll give you one because you won't survive without it"

What made this case chilling for me is the fact that Jemima Mcdonald's sister heard of rumors about some young boys finding a dead body in a derelict apartment the day after Jemima went missing. The sister herself went to that apartment the following morning and discovered Jemima's body lying on the floor in one of the rooms. I looked into the crime scene photo with labels pointing to the derelict apartment and the flat where Jemima lived. The two buildings were just next to each other. She was murdered just yards from the safety of her home. As did Patricia Docker and Helen Puttock. May all of Bible John's victims rest in peace.

Speaking of football: I was banned one evening from going out when I was living with a family in London and I had to ask why. Turned out that it was a big game that night ( world cup or the likes) between Sweden - England, and as I was from Sweden, the probability of me ending up being hurt was too high a risk. Apparently England took those matches quite seriously because, up until recently they had not won a game (of great significant) against Sweden in ages. They had been either won by Sweden or ended in a draw. Personally, I have no interest in any type of Sport. On another note; when I went to Glasgow to attend a wedding, I ended up in a cab with a driver whom went on about football for 30 minutes because we drove by a stadium. No one had asked about it, nor asked about football, but he was really in to it. Only cabbie I remember.

I agree completely! Some of the sins of the Old Testament were there because, if you apply modern understanding to them, they were UNHEALTHY and could literally kill you.
