Teddy Tunnock

Teddy Tunnock
King of the Barras in the centre is by Conzo and Globel, otherwise known as Conzo Throb and Ciaran Globel. It features the late 'Teddy Tunnocks' (sic) aka King of the Barras. A Weightlifter, bareknuckle champion and heir to the Tunnocks (sic) Teacake dynasty. An interesting but not so well known 1930s Glasgow legend. Quoted from the Geograph website.

Oooh! Tunnocks tea cakes! Delicious. I haven't eaten as many as Teddy by the look of it :)
Cheers, Rosa.

I haven't had one for ages, Rosa. I like Tunnock's Carmel Wafers too. Cheers, Joe

I photographed the Tunnock's factory a few years ago, Jeff, and then went to the Tunnock's Café in Uddingston's Main Street. Cheers, Joe
