Who did what to whom?


Oops, I actually meant Greg Hemphill (I always get them two mixed up :oops: ).
He gave the finger to my workmate. But to be fair there was a bit of provocation.



Hmmm, maybe I should add 'allegedly', to the above :?

If they are going to do glasgow humour and LIVE in the damn city, they should KNOW what Glasweigans are like.

Although when we saw them in the Maltman, they were pretty amicable guys. Likeable even.

I'd love to meet those guys, Still Game is fooking brilliant :D

I'm glad Greg Hemphill (allegedly) reacted like that, I'd have done the same if i'd gotten any hassle :wink:

It's the price they have to pay I suppose. But I can see where you would get pretty pissed with it constantly, like these guys obviously get.

Apparently, Karen Dunbar gets the 'Gies a swaatch of yer fanny' a lot.
Whether she complies with the request is unknown.

She certainly won't be obliging the blokes seeing as she's a vagitarian. However if it was a request from a female I'm sure she'd be only too happy get her growler out. ::):

Gallus Bar

Postby Squigster » Sat Oct 22, 2005 7:41 pm

Seen Tam Cowan, Stuart Cosgrove and Winston from Still Game in Gallus (best bar in Partick) a few weeks ago
I used to play fives on a Monday night at Goals in Shawlands, and none other than Chick Young played on the park beside me, and much to my surprise he never wore a Rangers top

Remembered another ...
Saw Peter Andre coming out the Parthenon of Gt. Western road around 1997 or so. Little shitty oily git, even in real-life he looks phoney and insincere.

Marti Pellow used to frequent The Venue (now G2 i think) on Sauchiehall st when it was a Heavy Metal gig on a Saturday night. Seemed a nice enough bloke.

Several River City folk at various times in the West End.

Last person I saw was Greg Hemphill (Chewin the Fat etc) the other week on Byres Road just outside the Grosvenor. Also saw Colin McCredie (Taggart) in Botanics about a month ago.

I've seen Tam Cowan many many times actually, and Karen Dunbar is Starbucks on Byres Rd. Also spoken to her when their location stuff was outside my flat.

I'm sure David McKay came into my hotel this evening looking for a room... not a household name, but he played Screech Nesbitt in Rab C. Nesbitt. You might know him from Braveheart... he was along side Peter Mullen and shouted 'Home, The English are too many'
