You would be warmly welcomed Scotsmum

Scotsmum

Sounds great! Not sure if you would allow me in, being as how I’m frae Auld Reekie an a’ that…transport might be an issue depending on the train strike?

We are all for multicultural relations. We have grans from all airts and pairts of Scotland, who come to the meet up.
The meet up takes place in the Concert Hall café, because it's near the bus and train stations.
Many use their bus pass, as the journey is free, apart from the 50p booking fee.
You will be most welcome!

I am going to bump this every day, in the hope we will ahve more takers.

Marydoll Mon 23-May-22 12:07:08

Mamma, I am a Paisley buddie, but moved when I got married. I still go into Paisley regularly, for the hospital and GP.
It has become quite a sad place now, lots of empty shops. However, there is a regeneration programme on the go, so fingers crossed.

Wished I lived nearer tae Glesca-I’d be there like a shot- it sounds so much fun. My Auntie lived in Paisley and we had many a holiday as children visiting rellies ‘North of the border’.
That was when we lived in NW England. I live in SE Eng now so will enjoy your meet-up vicariously- as long as someone posts chats and pictures of your doings on the day, please. Enjoy ladies ???????
