And today I did......

A scary bloke fi Broxburn went to a rough bar in Dundee just to scare the mods :shock:

Thats either extreme dedication or someones got confused in this thread, me probably

One of my few trips to Dundee was at this time of the year for a Celtic away game at Dens, probably about 1990. Our club only had three guys going through, so we went with the Craigmiller CSC from The Southsider. The other two guys stayed on in Dundee, and left me on my own for the trip back, a soft Physics PhD student among all the schemie hardmen... but it was okay, nice guys most of them.

Well that explains your liking for the International Bar.

So you liked a beer occasionally? :shock:

.

To be fair, sometimes I was on soft drinks like vodka and coke.

I'm not confused, what a relief, I though I was going to have to cut the aluminium out of my diet :roll:

I loved the shaky, I stayed upstairs from the SPAR just up from the bar

My regular Edinburgh haunts were Southside Steamie, The Junction, The Old Bell, Leslies, The Southsider, Drouthy Neeboors, The Argyle Bar, Canny Mans, Golf Tavern and others in the Southside of edinburgh.

Dont drink anymore so publife has virtually ended, probably for the best.

Only been to Edinburgh a handful of times

Only pub I remember is The Canny Man's - don't ask me where it is/was (approx 20 years ago)

 

[mikee]

panda i used to drink there about 20 years ago

worryingly i doubt if i could tell you where it is/was too

Hope you all had a good christmas, we did. Still sitting in my housecoat at 1pm, , was the same yesterday, finally might be time to get dressed and fiddle with my bike bits.

Canny Mans hasn't changed much in 20years, although it has been a about 5 years since I was there last. I was drinking there about 20 years ago too, we may have all met at that time. It's in morningside.

Crikey, I used to drink there too, about 15-20 years ago. Worked at the end of Canaan Lane, NHS Computer Services Unit. Had the occasional lunchtime pint that turned into a boozy afternoon

Hmmm, just won some Specialized decals...

Probably paid over the odds, but I think I might be in a position to re-decal my Hardrock. I'll scan them all in anyway as a reference for gil, since he didn't have them on file.
