I'm going to be at DD's house near Glasgow 14-23 March and wondered if anyone fancied meeting up then. I've never been to a meet up in Glasgow so maybe if anyone has and knows a good venue they could say where would be good.

*Baubles*, you have magnificent hair! It’s beautiful

I have hair envy when I see Baubles hair. It really is fab.

I am in between Baubles and Brook aka Jenny ?

baubles Fri 18-Mar-22 18:30:58

Awww thanks Fanny ?

This is me - also known as Jenny ! ?

Love this pic of you all and Baubles I’ll be able to picture your face on the GM thread.

Thanks Baubles, I hope we get more names as I am hopeless at remembering them. And we might get to chat next meet-up in Summer as I ran out of time this week.

I'm third from the left, almost hidden. Can't do pointy arrows. confused

Great photo! Sounds like a fun meeting! Is this you, Marydoll, with the red hair? You all have lovely hair, actually - and look very young!

TillyTrotter Fri 18-Mar-22 13:02:57

You are looking great on the pic Marydoll,
And Hi baubles (very jealous of your long hair).

Marydoll Fri 18-Mar-22 12:01:48

I am the one with the GENUINE ( so lucky, no dye has touched a hair of my head) red hair, glasses and pink dress.
Unfortunately, alcohol is a no, no for me! ???

Baubles, you have magnificent hair! It’s beautiful

baubles Fri 18-Mar-22 11:59:07

I’ll go first - this is me.

Thanks for answering my query Marydoll. Are you the one behind the glass of wine ?( no obligation to answer?).We used to have quite a few “local” meet ups: Dorking for Surrey, Guildford , Cobham (or was it Chobham ?)Oxford,Swindon and ours in Wokingham/Reading but ours seems to be the only surviving one though I can’t say for sure.

Marydoll Fri 18-Mar-22 09:34:55

I know, I'm infamous! I will leave it to individuals to out themselves! ?

It is Liberace! My mistake.

Is it?
That was who I thought that it could be, I’m not sure if it is him!

TillyTrotter Fri 18-Mar-22 09:02:16

Lovely photo’s Glasgow grans. You all look so happy to be together. There must have been such a buzz in the room ?

Grandmabatty Fri 18-Mar-22 09:00:55

Can we have some names to faces please? I only recognise Marydoll

Yes, it would be lovely to put names to faces. ?

Marydoll Fri 18-Mar-22 08:28:55

The fact that we- celebrities use the venue, guarantees more customers. We are a crowd puller!!! wink

Anyway, the prices are very reasonable and they have a an alcohol licence, much to my annoyance. Slainthe!

Charleygirl5 Fri 18-Mar-22 08:09:04

Marydoll do you think that venue will allow you back if you were so raucous? It is a lovely photo, thank you.

FannyCornforth Fri 18-Mar-22 08:08:47

Here is Liberace meeting the press after playing The Glasgow Empire in 1960

I don't think it is Frankie Vaughan. I checked that.

FannyCornforth Fri 18-Mar-22 08:01:20

Facially it looks a bit like Liberace to me!

FannyCornforth Fri 18-Mar-22 07:59:54

What a lovely photo!
You all look so lovely and happy!
Thank you Marysmile

Grandmabatty Fri 18-Mar-22 07:59:03

I thought it was Frankie Vaughn who visited Glasgow in the 50s. My mum met him and wasn't impressed.
