I think I have clogged this thread up with videos that are not strictly "old Glasgow" but when I started making them I didnt think I would be on episode 17 already.

Here are a few more I made recently;

Nobody has told me to stop yet so here is another;

once more into the breach dave.great stuff sir,should be shown in schools.

Don't stop. Wonderful stuff. And very professionally put together.

Cracking stuff recorded for posterity and our future descendants! Far and wide!

Thanks for the positive vibes guys and I haven't stopped yet, even though its the middle of February and freezing out;

Great stuff Dave - apart from the bit about the 'tanks in the streets' in the cattle market video. Tthat picture of a tank in the Trongate is actually from a war fund-raising effort in 1918, as conclusively shown in this blog post by Gordon Barclay. There were no tanks involved in 'the 'battle of George Square' - they arrived 4 days after the event and never left the cattle market.

Gordon has also debunked several other myths surrounding the event, such as 'the government sent in the army'.

At least you didn't mention Churchill!

Fantastic videos though, I'm really enjoying them. Please keep it up!

Ah well, cant get everything right but I am glad you are enjoying the videos.

Been on holiday and then laid flat with covid for a week so no new videos for youtube yet but I realise I hadnt posted this one here yet;

Thanks to a bout of covid it has been a while since the last video but I am back on my feet and have another 2 episodes to share with you all.





Dave.

Great videos as per usual.
