PayFest 2019 - Glasgow's Big Equal Pay Party



I said in a previous post that I would arrange for the Host and DJ for PayFest 2019, Paul Harper, to meet some of the Claimants - ahead of Glasgow's big equal pay party on Saturday 6 July 2019. 



So this meeting went ahead yesterday in Van Winkle, a Bar and Grill which is right across the road from The Barrowlands.



Fiona Winchester from Heart Radio was there and interviewed Betty, Frances, Rosie and Yvonne about the PayFest Party and the long fight for equal pay with Glasgow City Council.



The sale of PayFest tickets has taken a back seat while all the settlement letters have been going out, but will start up again in earnest over the next day few days.


Our friends at Van Winkle have kindly offered to host a pre-party gathering on the evening of PayFest and not only is Van Winkle very close to The Barrowlands - the Bar also has a Beer Garden so let's hope its a dry and sunny evening.

More details to follow - so watch this space.

Some more exciting news about the line up for PayFest 2019!

Our host and DJ on Saturday 6th July 2019 will be radio presenter Paul Harper, as heard on Scotland's biggest radio stations for the last 20 years, including Beat 106, Real Radio and Heart FM. 

Paul was Robbie Williams tour DJ and played in the George Square bells with Paolo Nutini and Deacon Blue. 

No doubt Paul will be aiming to pack out the Barrowland   dance floor with some of the biggest party anthems of all time in what promises to be a night to remember! 

So be there or be square!

The River Cottage chef has a some imaginative ideas for adding seagulls to the national diet - including a recipe for Kentucky Fried Seagull - would you believe. Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
