I was born in Townhead in 1943, went to St Mungo's School. I think I was abot 10 when we moved to Barlanark and I went to St Bridget's in Baillieston. I now live in Kent, England with my husband and granddaughter. I would love to hear from anyone that remembers me. I really miss Glasgow.

I left Parkhead in 1964. Came to California. Rest of family still in Scotland. I had to agree with Tom Moir (New Zealand) I would sell my soul for a tunnocks caramel wafer. Also the morning rolls, with square sausage. Only thing I want to eat when I go back to visit.

I miss Glasgow and miss the people there. I moved to Denver, Colorado and have been here almost three years and wish I was in Glasgow and visit the highlands. I loved going to Fort William and Inverness.
One day I will return and visit my home and see my friends and family.

I was born in Glasgow 1944 and was staying in Taylor Street then Cathedral Street.
I also went to St Mungo's When Cathedral Street was pulled down 1959 we all went to Quenslie near Cranhill. Do you or anyone remember me? Single name McConville.

Another excellent Baillieston site is
http:\\baillieston.info
It is unique in that it presents a view of Baillieston and Garrowhill through its street names. Very interesting indeed

Hi, my gran thinks she remembers you, her name is Margaret Coates but is now Keaney. She was born in the same year as you and lived at Taylor Street above the pub. Ring any bells?
