Yes, but you have to head for Springburn first, and then Kirkintilloch(what a great name that is, best said by say a 90year woman with rimless glasses) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had a friend who regularly attended matches at a certain football ground in the south west of Glasgow. One night he was approached by a snotty nosed kid with the offer to look after his car for £2. My friend then pointed to the inside of his car and introduce '"Bob" his German Shepherd to the boy stating that he looked after his car. "Aye very good Mr but can Bob blaw up yer four tyres?" came the reply. My mate gave the lad his £2 and promised him a bonus when he back if the car was ok. He returned to find it gleaming after the wee lad had washed it in expectation of his bonus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The wee lad obviously had a head for business as he was always in the same spot when my mate went to matches. Incidentally, Bob was only left in the car on cool Autumn and Spring evenings before anyone complains. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A pity that lad wasn't outside Glasgow Stadium last Friday, as he could have removed all the shale dust that I carried back to Whitley Bay, and was still there on Saturday morning.

Need to get a better parking space I get back to mine cleaner than when I left it. If I knew you were up I would have looked out for you next time maybe.

Or better still take it to Mr English General complain is that we have too much shale on our track. Sorts the men out from the boys mind you with the ones attacking the track doing the best. Was at Edinburgh the week before, when Glasgow were there(well should have turned up I think) and left with a clean car. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
