When were they taken? Because those cars in the background look very modern...

yes, that's a modern photo. i can recognise Russell's in the background, and a car supply shop. This is one of those tourist buses isn't it?

Oh, I don't know. I thought all shops in the olden days had "Photocopy 5p" signs outside them..... :)

The picture cant be that old as the reg plate on the rear of the blue car is reflective yellow. I do know where it was taken , bottom of Byres road to the end of Argyle street at Partick Cross.

However i may be mistaken on the location , it also reminds me of the street that goes from Charing Cross and turns right to take you up to the junction of Great Western Road , both streets are very similar in layout.

You sure?
Looks like the juction at Gibson St/Woodlands Rd to me. 'The Stand' and Hogshead pub would be behind the bus in the pic.

I may be wrong.
