My family and I lived in Giffnock, Glasgow from 1945 to 1960. On a wet Sunday afternoon my wife and
I with our two sons, Mark and Paul would get the tram at the bottom of our road, Merryvale Ave, and travelled right
across Glasgow to the far terminal for two and a half pence each for my wife and me with the children travelling free.
The children loved the ride which entertained them for almost two hours. How precious those days were and we all
remember the tram rides. In winter, no TV, it was a treat and got to be the highlight of the winter week.
Thanks for the pictures which my son in Canada found somehow [he is now 58], but the memory lingers on.
