Greatest Ever Glaswegian?
« on: July 15, 2019, 11:44:14 AM »
Seems our Mark is in the running to be the greatest ever Glaswegian in the Glasgow local paper The Evening Times.  A poll will soon be up and running apparently once all entrants have been revealed.

All good fun but despite his birth place MK's not a Glaswegian - he's a Geordie.

I predict Billy Connolly will win the poll.
