As someone who was born in Bellshill, I can honestly say... I hate this place! 😩 It is an utter shithole, I mean... What the Hell have We Scotts got to be proud of? All this town has inherited is nothing but sheer misery! I just wish things would change! Click " 👍 " if You agree! 👇

[@addictedtoangling]

@@marytdevine4143 i doesnt matter who financed it and u cant see that which is exactly my point it was funded at a time when people cant heat their houses or feed their kids yet those very people probably contributed to its funding thats the irony anyway what do i know im illiterate and unable to converse with someone of your intellect it would seem

[@SanctaFamiliaMedia]

Billy was my family friend. He grew up in my hometown and made his early sacraments at my parish, we t to my school. I interviewed him in 2009. Our connections were deep

[@therealisation5500]

Who can forget the photograph of Billy and Mo Johnson big bills face all flushed with the whisky only for Mo to turn up at Ibrox the next day 😂but in all seriousness dementia is a terrible disease and I don't think family in Scotland hasn't been touched by it happy trails billy
