Go back to May 1970, and my mate and I spent the night camping in an Ex Co-op Ford Thames Van in Edinburgh Cattle Market, now not a lot of people can say that. We were up there for the Scottish Six Days Motor Cycle Trials that started there and then went on to Fort William for the rest of the week. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Alex TM Posted October 21, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 21, 2021 Rather you than me! If I'm thinking of the right place (Chesser/Stenhouse?) then it's been built on with a large supermarket, with the old cattle market being a conference/concert/event venue. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the way home on the Friday we parked in Sauchiehall St, Glasgow, outside of Woolworths, and got up Sat morning, opened the back doors of the Van, lit the primus stove got our camp chairs out, and did a cooked breakfast in the Road, and no one took a blind bit of notice. 2 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In BR days (and probably still now) the E&G service was the most profitable for its length of any on the network - because of all the folk who were happy to work in one of the cities but would never dream of living there. Hence there was and is a strong commuter flow in both directions (disclosure: I lived in Edinburgh and worked in Glasgow for a while). 4 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted October 23, 2021 Author Share Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) So, this morning, and feeling a little fragile with not ONE, but NOW TWO painful Hips, and the sore knee now worse after last nights extended Band Rehearsal, and me leaping about like a demented Baboon that didn't help matters, I actually did some scenics on BR.
