Thank you, Joe, but I thought meatloaf was a middle-age drag act in St. James' Street, Brighton. A friend of Betty Swollocks?

poshglasgow (ha ha, I still find it funny putting those two words together - is it Kelvinside? or is that somewhere else?) Anyway, I am not at all familiar with the Brighton gay scene - I've never been there, and I'm prepared to prove that in a court of law - so be careful where you cast your nasturtiums.
Bearsden, Joe: one of the posh sides of Glasgow. However, Kelvinside is great too. I love the West End of Glasgow, and it pays to look up rather than down as you walk around, as much of the architecture is inspiring. The only part of the East End I warm to is Parkhead, where Scotland's greatest football team are based. Incidentally, it's where, on a very blustery day in 2001, I sprinkled my late brother's ashes on the flower bed at the main entrance (with permission of course). As I did so, a gust of wind covered me in ash and I must have resembled a "homepride man". It was at that moment a wee Glasgow drunk appeared from nowhere, sidled up to me and said, "Hey, is that somebody's ashes an 'at?" I replied politely that it was and then he stumbled and fell into the bloody flower bed on top of my brother!! "Gonnae gees a hud up?"
Jeez, you Glaswegians sure know how to have a good time.
