G'Day Paisleybuddie

Sorry to hear about your husband but
it will be a positive experience for you
to return to the Old Country after
22 years. I hate to disappoint y ou but
Lewis's has long gone, not too sure
about C & A think it may have gone too.
My mum lives in Renfrew and she can still
catch a bus into the city, Argyle Street or
thereabouts. I wouldn't worry about buses,
as they are an abundant service throughout
Glasgow. The Barras are still very much
part of the Glasgow scene and I'm sure you
will enjoy visiting there.

I have lived in Melbourne ,Australia for
17 years now and enjoy my life here; have
been home three times and hope to see my
old mum again next year 2003 if all goes
well. What part of Canada are you from and
what is life there in a cooler climate?

HI liz
sSo, you are an Aussie/Scot! I wondered why you said Gday thats great, I live in a small city called Cambridge Ontario ,I say small as it,s not as big as Toronto, I guess you have heard of it.
Right now we are in Winter, I was just out shovelling a little snow about an inch, I guess you are still in Summer?
I am sorry! I thought you lived in Glasgow, let me tell you ! if you can get a Tommy Scott video Liz I promise you you will just love it,and if we can get it here and in the States you can get on in Australia as the make them available for there too, you,re videos are the same as here and the States.
Well I have to take my mother out (she,s going to be 90 this nov.) and I take her out for a wee drive every day, she moved in with me 8 months before my man died .
So liz hope you have a nice day I enjoy talking to you hope you get a video if you ca,nt let me know I cangive you the e-mail of scotdisc as that,s where I get mine.
Bye for now

Lena Martell is no longer singing. (Some sort of throat infection, I think) Last time I saw her (about four years ago) she was living in Bishopbriggs in Glasgow.

To Tricia G

Thank you for your E-mail !

I was interested in Tommy Scott the Scottish singer.
My friends and I just saw his videos a short time ago and really enjoyed him and the lovely Scottish scenery, and would like to know something about him but have not had any luck.

Would love to hear from you if you have any information

Thank you again

Scottie

Thanks so much for your information
regarding Lena Martell.
I've been wondering for a long time
what happened to her. I realize she
must be getting on now but I had never
heard of her for ages. I know she
had a throat condition years ago and
maybe it has returned, but good to
know where she is and that she has
probably retired. Showing my age!!

Hi again Paisleybuddie

Haven't got around yet to finding your
Tommy Scott disc, but as soon as I
am around the music shops I certainly
will and look forward to all that
lovely Scottish scenery. I think when
you are overseas you appreciate the
scenery more, especially combined with
good singing.
