Wummin keep tellin me it's weird for them to go into a pub alone whereas it's OK for men.
Their loss. I'll do a tour of jakie pubs if anybody is up for it. |
||||||
| Scary |
Been there done that, but hey, I`m a glutton for punishment
I would be up for that as long as the beer isnae too bad and I will draw a line at that stinkin boozers on Howard St (Buchanans ?) mission failed for me if that`s included
|

Buchanans is bad. Not been in there in years.
We'll get a wee list of jakie pubs together. |

Thought I would post this photo as it has some features which I know will be of interest to others on here.
This is from the Virtual Mitchell and is the Station Bar at Stobbcross Street in Anderston. First thing to notice is that the Virtual Mitchell have now started to watermark all their photos. Featured in this photo is also an old public toilet, an old Police Box and a couple of old Telephone Boxes. Unfortunately the Post Box is hidden behind the car parked on the road. There is another object which I can't identify. It is located to the right of the Post Box between that and the Police Box. does anyone know what it is? |

Fullerton Park, TollcrossThe Fullerton Park was converted to a pub in the late 1970's and was originally called the Sandmyle.
When it first opened it was frequented by many of the workers from British Steel Tube Works which was located next door and to the rear of the pub. |
||||||
| fastnet |
Alex........................I was in there once.
and ended up boxing............ well he started it.................
|
||||||
| Alex Glass |
I'd love to get time to research the history of that building and the transformation to a pub.
It opened when I was working in the Tube Works and I think there was originally problems with it getting a licence. When it opened the quality of the finish was excellent. Being too young to drink at the time I was only ever given details of this new pub second hand. I often wanted to go in and see what it was like inside. It looked great from the outside and from what I could see the interior included some blue tartan. |

Luxury Apartments? | ||||||

Access road ? | ||||||
| Scary |
I`ve been hearing all sorts of rumours over the last couple of years from a Bookies to a Beefeater. I suppose Luxury Apartments is the most likely with easy access to the railway station, but probably be another hole in the ground till the recession is over. | ||||||
| sputnik |
scary,nae pub nae bookies ,thems the rules.blag the sign for robert pool.
|
||||||
| Scary |
A mate of mine has already reserved it and I can`t blame him as he has paid for it over and over as the Jam Tart was his second home

I was off out Galavanting yesterday evening, to a small Glaswegian Hamlet known as Partick, to take a listen to our Lone Groover do his thing.
A bloody good turn it was too .. and in very nicely mellow traditional surroundings (complete with stained glass and everything) .. 
... it even contained a little 'snug' type "Pub within a pub" which I christened "The Doorway To Narnia" as most of the very pleasant folk stumbling from it seemed to be on a little world of their own. A world that was all warm and snuggly and smelled comfortingly of nice beer and warm stew. 
The two resident Musos, our Dave and Gerry, tuned up their instruments and chanting equipment ... 
... imbibed themselves with all the essential ingredients ... 
... and off they went on a highly entertaining set of polished and professional blues covers. 
There were even some 'found faces' hidden in amongst the rustic, strangely inviting masonry ... 
In fact, the only down side to the evening was catching this ugly bastard staring at me from across the bar.
All in all a good wee night .. in case you want to check things out yourself get yourself to the Lismore Bar, Dumbarton Road .. half 5 to half seven. You never know .. you might even enjoy yourself. |

I'll get along to see the Groover in action yet... I like the idea of an early evening slot too

Double Post:
It has come to my attention that our Groovers' gigs are actually every second Thursday .. thought I'd better correct that before anyone turns up and the place is bereft of tunes.

The CartI have known for some time that The Cart was going to be demolished and kept meaning to get down for a photo before the event. Never managed to get there in all that time untill the day after they started the demolition.
The sign was still in place but when I passed there the following day it was gone.

Great picture but when was this taken Lone Groover??? It's got a very 70's feel about it. Looks like a special party night with no expense spared... two balloons, four coloured lights and the bar staffed by Jerry Sadowitz and Jeanette Krankie
