I have tried to give my story about our Glasgow through its people and buildings, and other aspects of my book. I hope you will find it a fascinating read. Whether we stayed in Glasgow or emigrated, we all have one thing in common: "We Belong Tae Glasgow."

Come with me on a walk through old Oatlands, street-by-street, back to that time when our old tenements were still standing. Where we had so many shops to choose from, to a time when people had more time for each other. Where we all knew each other and we all helped each other, and where we had our very own Richmond Park on our doorstep. And where all of us weans were loved unconditionally. Back to that place we loved, this was oor Oatlands, " Once upon a time."

With the collapse of the back elevation of our tenement we were shipped out to one of those new housing schemes being built on the outskirts of Glasgow and I hated leaving the soo-side behind. I kept going back for this is where I felt I belonged. In this book I have tried to keep alive those memories that people of my generation can all relate to, just ordinary everyday things we all done in the Gorbals and Oatlands and which are forever embedded in our minds, not forgetting walks over to the toon either. I left Glasgow when I was 20 years old (48 years ago) but like most exiles, Glasgow has never left us.

Everyone has good memories of their growing up, and mine was a wonderful one of my childhood in the era of the old tenements buildings in the Gorbals and Oatlands area in the south side of Glasgow. Every day for us was like an adventure with so many things to do and our street games could last all day long (especially in the school summer holidays). There were no computers, video games and mobile phones etc in those days and TV was only in its infancy, so all our energy was spent playing out in the open. In my book I try to tell our story of what life was like in that era through my poems, peoples stories and songs we sang in the streets. All this, I hope, brings back happy memories to people of my generation who lived through these times, and a future generation that I want to leave my memories with.
