I stumbled across the I belong
to Glasgow site. It made me so happy to see so
many friends in the same boat as me!!! I was born
in the Southern General Hospital on the 16 March
1955. I spent my childhood in Cardonald went to
Mosspark primary. Went on to boarding school and
came back to do my sixth year at Bellahouston
Academy. Spent a lot of holidays in Kinlochard
since my grandparents lived there. 1974 I went to
Sweden as an au pair for six months, 25 years ago
and I'm still here! I have three great children
Rory,20. Alma Kirsty,16 and Johanna Iona,14. My
Mum and Dad still live in Scotland on the Isle of
Bute. My sister and wee brother live in Glasgow
and my big brother lives in Edinburgh (but we
love him anyway!) I'd love to have a blether or
wallow in misty-eyed nostalgia with anyone who
feels like it. |
