The Norfolk Family Settle in East Kilbride
Work brought me to Scotland in 1975 and I needed to live within commuting distance of the Bank of England branch in Glasgow. Elizabeth and I looked around the south side of the City and fell in love with a beautifully restored eighteenth century style weavers cottage in Calderwood, East Kilbride. A new town is a lovely place to live when you are young and we loved it. Our son was born in 1977 and altogether we had three happy years living in Scotland before work made us move home yet again! We were very sorry to leave our lovely cottage home behind, and the garden which Elizabeth designed and built. Happily our dear neighbours also liked our wee house and bought it from us to make it their home. We have stayed in touch with them all these years as they became our son David's godparents. Just recently they invited us to visit and it was so nice to go into our old home and see it so... Read more
7 Glasgow Road, Cambuslang
An old friend of mine is desparately searching for a photo of the buliding where she lived - 7 Glasgow Road, Cambuslang. It was the first house she shared with her husband after they got married. Sadly, her husband was killed in a car accident a couple of years ago. She is looking for a photo to complete her own wee tribute album in his memory.
Halfway House, Cambuslang.
My great-grandfather James Crawford was born over Halfway House, a pub in Cambuslang. The road and building is still there, but it's no longer a pub. I went there last year, as one of my children now lives in Scotland, and it was great to see the place where a distant relative had lived. If you look up 'Old Pubs of Glasgow' on the internet, you can find Halfway House as it was.

Christmas 2010
My daughter bought me the book 'Old Rutherglen' by Rhona Wilson. On page19 is the old Rhul cinema where I attended my first film. 'The Wizard of Oz'. I fell asleep, I was only 4. It is now compulsory viewing for my children and grandchildren.
The Village of my Birthplace
I was born at no 24 Miller Street, Glassford in the year 1938 and lived there till 1948. I have very happy memories of my childhood there. Dad was a miner and was transferred to the east coast when I was 10 years old. I am the youngest in the family. I emigrated to New Zealand in 1958, got married and settled in Dunedin. I loved the freedom we had living in the countryside. I have been home on holiday four times and I always have a visit to 'the glessert' on my 'must do' list. Last time I was there we had a meal at Steayban eating place. That was in 2003.
