golf is a waste of a good walk !

and cheers spuggie for giving us 'weegies a bad name !' - its bad enough thanks !!

and gayle - when you say crochet - do you mean sewing/knitting or croquet ? - the lawn game ?? - either way no chance ! - and nice pic - nothing like a woman in a uniform !!!!

Agree with the fly fishing as I fly fish myself but dont like salmon. My dad is a "weegie" from the gorbals and it was meant in jest. Work with a lot of Glasgow guys and visit regular and find like everywere else a minority are the cause of the labeling.

how about doing voluntary work - you would be doing some good then helping people out and it gives you an interest and you meet different people. I do voluntary work our local credit union and school.

and why does everyone know the gorbals ???
& spuggie - I knew it was in jest ! I am from the very dodgy east end of glasgow ! - the bit you dont want to go to

Frottage.

All you need are wax crayons and some paper.

You could have fun in grave yards and churches all over the country.

What did your good lady wife tell me your CB handle was when you met?

Oh, yes.

Droopy Sword.

Sad but true.

My hobbies are Family History and Photography. I'm really interested in searching out those lost folk and it does tend to take up a lot of spare time. I also transcribe for FreeBMD.

I don't have access to a dark room now but developing photos was such a great thing for me. Especially black and white.

I now have a blog, which makes me use the camera more, even though it's a digital...............still not sure that I approve of those!

Have fun with which ever idea takes your fancy!

I agree with you Junetta, family tree stuff can become addictive. I,ve been at it for about 8 years and still get a kick from finding a new "skeleton".

Dodgiest bit health wise I can think of is Shettleston and that is errrrr "unique" to say the least. Gorbals aint that bad apart from the Mosque.

I've sent you a link for the scuba club in Blackburn. My dad did his PADI certificate there..
