All good things come to an end
So in all my wisdom I decided that it was time to give my boys their own rooms, what a mess, carnage, The spare room was used by me as an office, so you can imagine the paperwork and the usual “I’ll just keep this useless piece of information here and deal with it later,…

Glemavis, The Auld Grey Kirk

Forgotten Coatbridge
Coatbridge I am 38 years old and must admit to being a wee bit embarrassed about not knowing about this place that I am about to bring to your attention, I have walked past it hundreds if not thousands of times, and always thought it was an empty space, with a garage that had been…
