Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Where is the Glasgow That I Used to Know?
Can anyone remember when Prince Charles came up to Glasgow from somewhere in England and delivered a (spoken) version of this particular song? I think his reason was something to do with architecture, urban regeneration, deprivation. It was priceless to hear those foreign tones enunciating how he used to buy pies and broken biscuits at a wee corner shop. How anyone restrained laughter at the line, "How's yer maw gettin oan?" I can't think.
