Synopsis
Following on from John Boyle's humorous yet moving account of his childhood in a poor Irish immigrant family in Paisley, Galloway Street, this is the story of his close friendship, in his teens, with James Lafferty, a boy from his own slum neighbourhood who joined his class at the local grammar school. This friendship allowed John and Laff to escape from the harshness of their lives in Ferguslie Park possibly the worst housing scheme in the West of Scotland as well as from the pariah status this conferred on them at school. We bonded because we were outsiders outsiders at school because of where we lived; outsiders in our own neighbourhood because of where we went to school our uniforms marked us as snobs from the Academy.

- n***d (49)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good.

- r***d (273)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseItem in great condition 😁 SELLER communicated any time I had a question 😍 Good value 😊 packaged securely 🙂 Shipping said 7-14 days which is correct , would purchase again from rhis seller ... Thank You
- 6***t (479)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchasePurchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
