Yep sorry meant to say it was Gordon jr. he cut my hair when he played for Falkirk and Celtic and after it all. Gave me the odd lift back to corstorphine where he lived at the time and after he played , as I was usually his last appointment and my folks lived not far from him. Good Jambo. his dad did the shop up the stair as you say and is an absolute legend , total legend Edited March 15, 2019 by 1971fozzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
