@PastGlasgow Worked there 1977 when it was Fine Fare and every item had to be manually priced no barcodes

In 1871 it became the first branch in the Cooper's grocery chain. The firm demolished Thomson's warehouse and built a modern block incorporating office space above, home for many years to a prominent Aer Lingus branch. That too has been demolished, replaced by a hotel.

The building that put the "Greek" into Alexander "Greek" Thomson. His first executed Grecian design, and his first important urban building, it was designed and built for J & WA Blair hat manufacturers in 1853. 📷 Glasgow City Archives #glasgow

@jamiebhoy2009 @oakroyd 106 to either Riddrie or Millerston and yip became the 65 bus in 1966 I think

@oakroyd Aye 106 Provanmill to Bellahouston, might actually been a trolley bus as well 🚃 it wis the bus that took ye tae Ibrox for the game then it changed tae the 65 🚏the good auld days when it went right through brigton stopping at the mermaid where the windaes got tanned.

@oakroyd @derekniven67 Yip thats it Tony - short working of the 48 to Peat Road - usually went to South Nitshill

@derekniven67 It is that gushet. Pollokshaws Rd. branch of it.

Had a good search for this location and particularly the #shoap. But drawn a blank I'm afraid. Peat Road Bus from Midland Street heading south in #Glasgow c.1960. But where? The pub name is the key. Canny read it....

@oakroyd Ex National Bus Company swapped for a Bristol VR

The Odeon Cinema next door to the Plaza, Eglinton Toll, #Glasgow. The movies say 1978. 📽️ (Doug McKerrell)

@PastGlasgow @WYWH75 @apalmer95 Was part of the pub not a bank before Dows ?

@WYWH75 @apalmer95 The company was started in 1807 by Lochaber native Samuel McCalman (Dow being an anglicised form of the surname). Originally a wine merchant & whisky bonder, the company had several pubs across the city by 1899.

This week's Friday pub is an easy one, because I'm in it the noo 😂 The Granary at Shawlands Cross opened here in 1983 on the site of Samuel Dow's which predated the building of the 1890s Crossmyloof Mansions tenement. #Glasgow
