I know I'm a late-comer but don't see anybody mentioning;

a geggie - cart where the axle was a flattened tin can
kerbie - throwing a ball to bounce back from the other kerb
boattley(spelling ?) - like conkers/chessies but with glass bottles from the midgie bins (maybe just shettleston then?)
nail & thread pictures - like still game opening credits

cheers for the rest,
