No trams round our way, just trolley buses. Worst thing they ever did getting rid of those in view of the pollution now caused by diesel.

I loved it too, I used to look forward to it. Mum said it was to build me up because I was skinny, she fattened me up a bit too much though!

Re: Own up now, who remembers …

I remember those days I was born in Glasgow brought up in a tenement by my granny and my father and I remember my granny throwing a jammy piece out top dancer window when I was hungry raiding the middens for empty ginger bottles to get money back on them getting into the afternoon picture matinee for sixpence going down to the toilets opening the emergency exit doors and letting your pals in for free getting a slap round the ear if you got caught

I remember my Grandad giving me and my brother that off a spoon.
Bless his heart, a lovely man.
