  • DELETED I’m in the Gorbals, that is basically our advertisement these days. It’s awrite noo if ye can afford it by BanksyBhoy (Tue 16th Nov 2021 10:59pm)
  • DELETED My dad used to take me to Dunterlie Park from about 3 years old and have fond memories of watching Arthurlie, so if you are a football guy I recommend it by BanksyBhoy (Tue 16th Nov 2021 10:58pm)
  • Few years ago we got a delivery from Anarkali to G5 on Xmas day. Excellent Indian that if you ask anybody who has lived in the Gorbals for a long time it is most likely where they order from. You can’t go wrong with it and you can see their menu on the website and even order on there as well, although you may have to prebook for Xmas day. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 21st Dec 2021 10:15am)

  • Honestly it’s no great loss to me personally. I live a 15 minute walk from the city centre and I would still never go there shopping. The city could do with having all these retail spaces turned in to residential housing. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 19th Jan 2022 9:24am)
  • I work in property management for mostly commercial properties and most of the conversations we have been having are around this exact thing. Over the next 5-10 years the retail spaces in city centres will gradually disappear as has already been happening. Covid has accelerated this because now with so many companies seeing that work from home is an option they will be looking to see out their lease and close offices. These spaces will need to be changed in to something as landlords aren’t exactly going to give up their profits, so the natural thing is residential. I think in the long run it will only benefit all the pubs, clubs and restaurants in the city centre if there is a greater population living on their doorstep as they are more likely to use them. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 19th Jan 2022 10:16am)
  • The student accommodation isn’t exactly cheap so if someone was to do it at a more reasonable price then I wouldn’t be against it. I’m sure the bars, clubs and restaurants which would mainly be what is left in the city centre if retail was mostly to go, would welcome more students on their doorstep. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 19th Jan 2022 10:24am)
  • Aye you can’t win with everyone, there is always going to be an arse like that, who will move in above a pub and then complain about noise from said pub. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 19th Jan 2022 10:46am)
  • Aye it’s not an easy task. It will be interesting to see how the old Debenhams building works it if these plans go ahead. It seems their plan is a bit of everything throughout the building. https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/19735777.amp/ by BanksyBhoy (Wed 19th Jan 2022 12:06pm)
  • Agreed, that part of the proposal seems crazy to me. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 19th Jan 2022 4:19pm)
  • Not sure if you got somewhere yet but I would recommend Ardnamurchan on Hope Street. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 25th Jan 2022 2:57pm)
  • Here’s a map of light pollution https://www.lightpollutionmap.info if they where ever visible it would only be in certain areas by BanksyBhoy (Wed 26th Jan 2022 11:07am)
  • Aye still going strong, excellent wee band by BanksyBhoy (Wed 30th Mar 2022 10:57pm)
  • Get the cunt reported to 101 if you are feeling unsafe. You cannae be too safe just in case. I will say that when ordering off Just Eat that the address their app takes them to is different from mines so possibly was lost but being a creep anyway. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 17th May 2022 9:18pm)
  • Honestly some people need to calm down. If I was a student I would be looking to stay in the city centre and would have no issue staying there. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 12th Jul 2022 10:40am)
  • The tickets are free by BanksyBhoy (Fri 29th Jul 2022 12:22am)
  • Few others have mentioned places up the West End but if you are looking for somewhere more central then there’s a place called The Vintage Scene in St Enoch Square. A few others just down from there on King Street called Mr Bens’s, Minted and others I can’t remember the name of. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 16th Aug 2022 1:19pm)
  • Stick a hoody on n a pair of gloves, maybe a tammy n you’ll be fine by BanksyBhoy (Tue 22nd Nov 2022 7:12am)
  • When yer at a wedding n yer maw says you need to get a picture with yer arsehole uncle. by BanksyBhoy (Fri 17th Feb 2023 3:31am)
  • People like you who try to compare those 2 things are part of the problem. You wouldn’t compare fans celebrating fans with the KKK, so don’t do it for the equally racist orange order. by BanksyBhoy (Sun 28th May 2023 6:47pm)
  • 5 minute walk straight down to the Broomielaw and across any of the bridges there and pick up on any of the streets beside the new Barclays buildings. by BanksyBhoy (Thu 1st Jun 2023 4:39pm)
  • Squiggly Bridge my mistake. I love how literal our bridges are that we can mess up squinty and squiggly bridges, no other place is that mental but accurate 😂 by BanksyBhoy (Thu 1st Jun 2023 10:55pm)
  • Don’t know what office your working in but most people go in to mine, and all the others I know on a Friday because you go for pints n that after. by BanksyBhoy (Sun 4th Jun 2023 6:59am)
  • It’s Glasgow taxis outing to Troon.. The drivers take kids from all over the city down to Troon for the day. Not the best day for it especially after the good weather we had last week but they do it every year. https://gtof.org.uk by BanksyBhoy (Wed 21st Jun 2023 11:31am)
  • Imagine bumping someone else’s patter https://twitter.com/paulbiack/status/1671845481654173696?s=46&t=nE8uqljDeNk-kqjDpgXV-A by BanksyBhoy (Thu 22nd Jun 2023 8:17pm)
  • You can buy them directly from a pharmacy, but I tried stopping years ago and after a quick conversation with my local GP they gave me a prescription for the patches and chewing gum. They didn’t work for me, but I have been on a vape for about 5 years now which works for me though not really completely stopping, but saves a fortune. by BanksyBhoy (Sat 1st Jul 2023 4:55pm)
  • ![gif](giphy|YmQLj2KxaNz58g7Ofg) by BanksyBhoy (Sat 1st Jul 2023 5:12pm)
  • No worries you will find what works for you. Some of my mates were able to just go completely cold turkey and never think about it again, but I would assume that most people need something. Cold turkey or patches etc didn’t work for me because it’s not the nicotine as my vape oils are no nicotine, it’s just the habit of smoking for me. by BanksyBhoy (Sat 1st Jul 2023 5:10pm)
  • Ask any guy over the age of 50 in any pub in Glasgow and he will tell you the current name, previous names, whether it was a shite shop or not and who used to drink in it. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 5th Jul 2023 6:40pm)
  • https://news.stv.tv/west-central/two-glasgow-high-rise-flat-blocks-on-caledonia-road-to-be-demolished-due-to-fire-safety-risk these 2 buildings are sitting empty as they are due to be demolished. Would be ideal for filming as all residents have moved out. Having been in them in the past I can confirm the stairs are like the picture but the houses are not directly on the stairs. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 23rd Aug 2023 6:43pm)
  • Get up n tell him tell him to put it oot. Honestly man a whole rant on here for fuck all, instead a telling some arsehole on the bus, here mate put that oot. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 29th Aug 2023 1:57pm)
  • Then give them the fight ya shitebag. Honestly some people are just happy to be victims. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 29th Aug 2023 2:48pm)
  • They do when the alternative is being a fucking victim ya shitebag. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 29th Aug 2023 2:54pm)
  • I’m a scum bag from the Gorbals that much we agree on, but do you know what I’ll never be ? A shitebag who won’t tell somebody to stop smoking on a bus. I know which one I’d rather be. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 30th Aug 2023 12:02am)
  • Mate you haven’t had a decent comeback all day you are lucky I even replied to you at all. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 30th Aug 2023 1:00am)
  • Goodnight, have a good day mate. by BanksyBhoy (Wed 30th Aug 2023 1:06am)
  • 267 or 21. Any bus that you get on at the stop outside the graveyard will go to the city centre. by BanksyBhoy (Sun 1st Oct 2023 2:09pm)
  • 80% will be for social rent which allows people to be able to save money to then get a mortgage. If they where building them purely for sale at £200k+ I would agree, but their not. by BanksyBhoy (Thu 2nd Nov 2023 7:59pm)
  • Trains definitely still go over it you can hear them when in the pubs in the Gorbals under the bridges. It’s not very often though. by BanksyBhoy (Thu 16th Nov 2023 6:34pm)
  • Would normally agree but my best pal writes the same way n he grew up in the Gorbals so fuck knows. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 28th Nov 2023 12:23am)
  • Understand why you have been downvoted because we hate that shite, but it’s accurate my niece puts on this American accent because it sounds like the YouTubers. by BanksyBhoy (Tue 28th Nov 2023 12:25am)
