The King & I

This vid contains The King’s 90 second take of Glasgow in 1991. It’s hard to praise him enough, he’s brilliant.

Journalism at its best... and pictures of a nice watch thrown in.

He’s a god, Mo.

If he has time, and I don’t upset him between now and the last weekend in August (which is unlikely because I enjoy annoying him), we’re going to branch out again for this year’s vid.

Now where’s my phone, I must remind him I’m his boss.

In this watch vid The King looks at a 1992 aspect of Glasgow.
I only have to resist abusing his majesty for 9 more days, which is like asking Sev to resist pies for 9 days.

Nice watch close-ups. Still wouldn't buy a Tag, mind you.

That girl Charlotte spoils you.

PS I trust your visa requirements have been met? Could be an issue re your supposed "trip"...

Oh aye, you should have seen her glee when discussing slapping my face multiple times for the audio at the end of the vid.
“I have a lot of anger”, she said. Not towards me, I’m lovely.

On the train to God’s Own City now, visas are not a problem.

Home from God’s Own City.

This year’s video of the trip will contain:
The King of Glasgow
Immo
Furniture Went Mad
Dundee
Larbert
Stenhousemuir
Pies
Dundee pies
Pie preparation
Pie eating

Sev will be in heaven.

Don’t hold your breath though, it will be months in the making.

Here’s a sneak clip of the pie footage The King shot today:

That pie needs sauce, and those peas need vinegar

Add that and Sev won't be able to stand up for his hard-on

Surely vinaigrette, Mo? Neat vinegar on peas requires a strong constitution. Perhaps the piemaster will be along to give us a ruling.

Here’s another teaser from The King's vid to tempt him.

First cut is complete. Waiting for the King’s VO and some media to finish the vid, should be the end of October.

Larbert teaser:

At long last. The king was out shooting in rainy Partick today so the vid could be finished. He's a star that boy.
If you don't learn at least 10 things from this video, you can lunch with Immo and I next year..........maybe.

You're getting so good at these that even a lengthy 24 fkn minutes seems (almost) acceptable...

Next year do Govanhill.

Awaiting Sev's verdict on the pies.

Blimey, praise from dad, thank you. It’s all down to the brilliant collaborators, utter gents.

Planning to breach 30 minutes for the 2022 vid.

Funny you should say that, the King wants to cover Govanhill next year. A friend of the channel bides in Govanhill and has invited The King and I for decaff tea. If she reads this she’ll berate his majesty like fuck.

Without Sev’s verdict, the pie sections were for nought.

The King looks like he should lay off the pies in this photo, could be an optical illusion though:

Very disappointed Sev can't even reach over his pie-belly to login to Stenny to type a labourous reply these days.

I blame his soft living in t'south.

An early date (last weekend in May) for this year’s video, as I hope to visit later in the year too, but it’s not looking promising at the moment.
Things have been discussed with The King but whether he participates or fucks off on holiday while I’m up is anyone’s guess.

The King didn’t fuck off on holiday and we had two very pleasant days shooting, which was better than a holiday for him.

First draft of the script is written and I’m confident the video will be finished by Christmas.

Blimey, by the skin of our teeth. Of course the delay is The King's fault, he'll be punished next year for his unreliability.

If you don't learn at least ten things from this video I'll buy you lunch in The Crystal Palace next year. This offer does not extend to Sev, his pie intake would bankrupt me.

The vid is worth watching for The King's piece on Govanhill, he's brilliant.

"Five Days in Glasgow & Other Exotic Locations"

Quite an eclectic take, Licker.... but 54,000 views on You Tube..? Die you post this vid on YouPorn by mistake ffs ?!?!

Must be nearly time for you to plan the 2023 version. Must say I'm amused by the suckers on YouTube who think you do these videos just to show Scotland in a bad light?? Part of Nicola Sturgeon's deluded army of fuckwits no doubt.

I assume the King of Glasgow approved your script (and no doubt wrote its best bits).

The views reflect the video’s excellence. YouPorn is for oiks.

Yes, my affection for urban decay and grime seems to be mistaken for criticism by some, despite me stating my love for Glasgow in every video.

The King and I have begun discussions for this year’s work and he’s chosen what part of Glasgow he wishes to focus on, he’s not going to be happy when I send him my list of ideas though, but annoying him is one of life’s joys.

He wrote this excellent piece and I’m eagerly awaiting his Partick assassination , but I won’t be holding my breath, unreliable cunt that he is.

Geegs Fae the Tongs:

Class

Funny thing is, the KoG informs me that he sent you that recorded prose rather a long time ago... speaking of tardy, unreliable cunts Licker.

Of course he might be pulling my leg. But I doubt it.

Yes, time did slip through my hands with that video.

Anyway, five days over the third weekend in September have been booked for this year’s shoot.

The King and I plan a day out to a destination unconfirmed and a day exploring north east(ish) Glasgow, during both he will be on the hook for lunch, as payment for allowing him to appear on such a prestigious YouTube channel.  

If he’s not busy, Furniture Went Mad and I intend a day trip, on which I’ll buy lunch because FWM is a gent of the highest order.

I’ve also been invited to lunch at the Glasgow Art Club and hopefully a tour, depending on which day I’m free.

In the evenings I’ll probably be in The Star Bar, The Laurieston and other spit and sawdust establishments, nursing a glass of lemonade and sending abusive texts to his majesty.  

Another fantastic shoot during which I once again encountered outrageous Glasgow kindness and generosity.

First draft of the script has been written and emailed to The King for his contributions. I’m confident(ish) the vid will be uploaded before the end of the year.

The vid is finished……….apart from The King’s contributions as usual, he’s such an impediment.
Next year I’ll force him to buy lunch in Glasgow’s most expensive Greggs as punishment for his tardiness.
Anyway, here’s an excerpt:

This year's Glasgow vid.
Hello Glasgow my Love:

This year’s Glasgow shoot is booked for Sept 8th -13th. The King is frantically attempting to book a holiday for these dates to avoid buying me lunch, he’s a very bad man.
