Contrary to popular belief I haven't been kidnapped and sold to some tribe of Amazon wummen as a sex-slave in deepest Brazil. Truth is folks I never seem to have time thesedys due to the fact that I am stuck in the middle of trying to get my new place of work firmly established in the old Budhill Halls in Springboig plus numerous other things that i have been dragged into for my sins. I am still working on new stuff for the Keelies board but not wanting to put the majority of it on as there are too many 'thieves' about with no respect for copyright issues. In other words I am not spending my hard earned cash on photos and other bits of ephemera for someone to copy and paste all over the internet claiming it as theirs...once I get it in print they can do with it what they will. Heavily involved in stuff re the Great War including a wee film re Parkhead and The First World War plus several other projects. Best place to catch me thesedays is on Facebook but I will still be dropping in here now and again if only to delete most of the deadwood before we launch the new site...which I am convinced has a curse upon it!

Hello Charlie and all Kellies, not been on fur a bit as the site seems tae have grounded tae a halt.
Must say I’m bit disappointed that our collective East End heritage, through the Kellies site and others, seems tae be ignored and bypassed by reality TV stuff like Commonwealth City.
Watched the first two episodes and no mention what so ever of the old Riverside School that is now smack bang in the middle of the whole Commonwealth complex.
What has happened tae all the earlier stuff about Riverside exhibitions, tee shirts etc, it’s all gone quiet, we seem tae have been brushed stroked out of history.
Have we left it too late or is there something that can be done tae put our collective kellies history into the whole games thing.
And a wee aside, the focus on the regeneration stuff on the telly seems tae be on Dalmarnock, not Parkheed, seems Parkheed ends, according tae the tv people, at Springfield Road/London Road, and as we debated a wee while ago, the rest is out there but it’s not in Parkheed
as most of us know it.
On another aside.........I’ve been saving it all up..........there is a map on the Commonwealth City programme that shows the gangs of the East end, all I can say at this point on a Saturday night is, Sally ya bass, we are the peeople.

Well folks I seem to have finally got rid of some of the things that I was committed to in recent months so hopefully we can get back to getting some form of normality back on the Glesga Keelies board. I will however say that I plan to totally revamp it and cut away a lot of the dead wood from it in order to be able to maintain it on a regular basis.

Hello People , It has been a long time since I spoke to you all on here. I have been involved in all sorts of stuff over the last year and to be truthful I honestly feel I have taken the Keelies Board as far as I can take it. I am therefore going to transfer the Keelies to a face book page and keep this forum as a board which will deal mainly with the Highland Light Infantry aka as 'the Glesga Keelies'. I am due in hospital in the next few weeks for an operation and will be convalescing for a few weeks at home so I plan to make the change over then if all goes to plan. Until then I hope that you all have a Happy and Prosperous New Year and look forward to seeing you on the new board when it is unleashed on an unsuspecting world sometime near the end of January.
Yours Aye!
Charlie McDonald
