@johnasa69 @CmilkComFoot Any time, John. I know what you're going to say....,"aye, if you answer your phone!" 😅
I gained loads from being around the process, too. Hoping to make it up for a visit at some point!

@PaddyMcK @CmilkComFoot Thanks for your support over the years Paddy.... you kept us going in the darker moments and also offered us great advice....we stuck to our task and ultimately saved the pitch for the community 👍
Nice contrast in both these photos 😁

This came up in my photo memories from 3 years ago today. What a journey @CmilkComFoot have been on to save Barlia (a journey longer than 3 years!). The difference they've made to the pitches & thus to the people is well worth a look over on their socials.
Well done to all 👏!

I set off to discover something new about my city, joining two different tours exploring new, or overlooked historical perspectives. In this article, I share my experience with tour guides @Henbell and @KAMackinnon of @Radical_Glasgow.
