In order to promote more feedback we have disabled the requirement to log-in in order to comment on something you have seen on the blog.
Those of us who write for the blog love any sort of feedback. We know that a couple of hundred people log on every day to one section of the blog or another, but we rarely receive any feedback on what we write. If you think it is rubbish or off the mark or banal or offensive do say so (though if we disagree with you we’ll tell you). 
And similarly if you like something do indicate as such. We are not looking for ego boosts, but rather some indication of what it is folk in Strathbungo want to see in a blog. Do you want personal musings or more fact based content? Do you want opinionated pieces or something a little more toned down. More variety or more focus?
Anyway, comment is now open and free.
We’re hoping to buy a Morris Minor as soon as the weather improves and would like somewhere dry to keep it in Strathbungo. Does anyone have a bit of garage space they could rent us for a modest sum over the next year?
Thanks in advance.
Looking for some help to find reputable contractors to carry out sandstone conservation on our front facade to our house in Vennard Gardens.
Hello bungoites
I’m thinking of trying to organise a Lights Out Night in Queens Park. This would be of the nature whereby as many people as possible come out to hang out together in the park on an evening with the dual themes of saving on home energy and generating a more positive impression of the park.
Local cafe’s providing food, some acoustic music/spoken word, bicylce powered cinema, lantern making that type of thing. I will be talking to the South Side Transition group and local cafe owners among others to see who is interested in making this happen. I wonder what the society would think about bringing to the table? One option mooted is to go for this on the 10th October to coincide with the International Day of Doing on Carbon Reduction.
Look forward to hearing any thoughts/ideas/input from anyone. Best Wishes
Chris
Hi,
At bungo in the lanes there was a couple selling art. I have lost their card, does anyone know his website?
Thanks

Hi there,
Just wanted say how sorry I am that you were treated unfairly regarding the licence for this year’s beer tent. As a resident of Marywood Square, I would like to help out in any way I can for next year. I am a retired policewoman and although the laws have changed somewhat since my day, I wondered if it would help if we set up stewarding of some sort? I would be happy to be a ‘steward’ for the day! I’m sure you’ll keep us updated by newsletter, but just want you know that you have my support. Other neighbours feel the same. It was still a wonderful day.

Hi,
We live in Marywood Square and have recently noticed some erosion to the sandstone on one of our window frames.
We are looking for any help in finding any good tradesmen in the area to give us a quote, or perhaps anyone in the area who has experienced this before and can give us any advice.
Thank you
Chris
Does snyone know the name of the window cleaner that has been doing the windows in Marywood Square fro the last few years?
I live at number 4 and have been threatened with a busted jaw and broken windows after he turned up looking for money again after being told just over a week ago not to do my windows again.
I’d appreciate it if anyone in during the day could keep an eye out.
I have already informed the community police.
Hi there,
I just wanted to let you know that I’ve started a Strathbungo group on Flickr, as one didn’t seem to exist.
http://www.flickr.com/groups/strathbungo/
I know there are loads of nice Bungo pics on Flickr and it’d be great to aggregate them.
If you use Flickr, I’d be happy to send you an invite to become a moderator. Even if you don’t, you can grab the code and embed slideshows etc for use on other sites (like this!)…if you fancy.
If you wanted to tell folk about it, hopefully we could grow the membership and number of pics.
Best Wishes,
Helen
Large heavy red sofa free to good home. Slightly tatty but very deep and comfortable. Ideal for teenagers to lounge on or kids to jump on. Photo available.
