"I have passed the website on to my old
Greenhead Street friends from Brigton out here in Australia. Our building
is long gone, but would you believe, a kind friend posted the old
Greenhead Street sign out to my sister in Australia, and she has it
hanging on little chains on
her patio here in a beachside suburb of Melbourne!"

"The
sights have brought back many old memories. Much has changed since I last
saw these buildings, but much stayed the same too. What a treat it was
seeing my old school ( John St Primary ) and even my old house on
Greenhead St. It was indeed a trip into the past and it was much
appreciated. Thanks.......... For years my children have heard me describe
where I used to live; now I can actually show them. I hope the culture
shock isn't to much for them! Thanks again, webmaster. I'll be passing this site on to my siblings and
friends." |

"......only recently discovered your excellent website, it is
first class! I was born in Glasgow in 1933 and lived at 249 Greenhead Street........ My parents had a
chip shop on the Main St. Bridgeton next door to Crolla's cafe, just
around from Newhall St. We moved to Ayr in 1940, I attended Ayr Academy
then left school and did my national service in the RAF......all great
fun! |
