William Slicer shared this photo adding, “This is the early 1950’s. My Granny and Pappy Broon. Nee Nellie Gibson and James Brown aka ‘Quinny’ Broon. A coal miner and his wife enjoying a day doon the watter on the Clyde, probably the fair fortnight. They lived in High Blantyre then at Auchinraith Rd. Liked a beer or two in the Smiddy pub. I think he may also have been fined for poaching around the Calder River!”
What did YOU and your family get up to at the Glesga Fair holidays in decades gone by?
