STILL GAME’S FORD KIERNAN DOES A BOABY THE BARMAN AT GLASGOW PUB

FORD Kiernan did his best impression of Boaby The Barman on a night out in Glasgow.
The Still Game actor who plays pensioner Jack in the BBC series couldn’t resist getting behind the bar at Nico’s for a cheeky pint or two.
The star is a regular at the haunt and even popped in unannounced with some of the other cast members to the Still Game quiz night they used to run.
Bar co-owner Stevie McColm said of his Friday night visit to the Sauchiehall Street haunt: “Ford was in good spirits when he paid us a visit on Friday. He was chatting with punters about the latest series and dancing away as he enjoyed some drinks.”
We joked about him getting behind the bar like Boaby The Barman and he decided to pour himself a pint of Guinness. It could be said that he was even better at it than Boaby himself.”
Ford also told a group of girls that he loves a bit of techno.

BOYZONE, THE JACKSONS, SCLUB AND FREE WELLY WASHING IN EDINBURGH

Beverley Lyons 

SCOTFEST is offering a free welly-washing service as well as cups of tea, coffee and bottles of water to anyone who camps overnight during the eighties and nineties festival this July in Edinburgh. 

The nostalgia filled two day party on July 6and 7 will be Scotland’s second biggest festival with a capacity of 35,000 each day and see a host of fun acts including Boyzone, The Jacksons, B*witched, Liberty X, 5ive, Five Star, The Bay City Rollers, and S Club perform at the Royal Highland Centre In Ingliston. 

The family friendly fest has even split up its camping site into a child friendly zone and adult zone so revellers can have peace of mind overnight as well as fun and games for the kids. 

There’s a Kids Zone, Petrolheads Zone and Fairground Area too. 

On site parking is available and organisers have also teamed up with glamping organisers Pitchvillage.com to build special pods for those who want extra luxuries like hair straighteners, curling tongs, phone chargers, posh toilets and other pamper products during their stay. 

Festival boss Mark Bennett said: “We know how important it is for people to feel safe at a festival overnight and we’ve tried to make them feel as comfortable as possible. 

Camping fees are ten pounds per person. You may then self pitch or upgrade through our partners at Pitch Village where prices range from £75 to £100 and above.”

See PitchVillage.com for upgrade options 

including pre pitched tent, mattress and sleeping bags along with pamper zone, showers, valuable storage, phone chargers and more. 

Mark added: “Scotfest is a family friendly festival and we will have plenty of fun and games for kids as well. We don’t expect people to get too muddy over the course of the weekend because The Royal Highland Centre isn’t all grass underfoot, but we will have a free welly cleaning service for campers just in case.
