E=Mc2 Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 What kind of coach was it? Probably less than an eight seater or it wouldn't have got through the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't talking about the size of the coach ya dafty, was it a McGills, Arriva or the one from Barrhead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think the coach would have given our new manager a ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TediousTom Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 What kind of coach was it? Horsedrawn were always my favourite. Who tied up the horses and where? Maybe we signed a new stable boy to look after Tommy's horses and to clean the manager's carriage. The whole carriage that is, including the under part. It is all about value for money!

RickMcD Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 You're a smooth operator. Dinner? In my day the back row upstairs in The Auld High Street followed by a bag of chips out of the Central Chip shop in Gordon Street and you had better than a 50/50 chance. Especially if she was from The Grammar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oaksoft Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) Horsedrawn were always my favourite. Who tied up the horses and where? Maybe we signed a new stable boy to look after Tommy's horses and to clean the manager's carriage. The whole carriage that is, including the under part. It is all about value for money! It certainly is. I hope he also followed the horses around with a shovel. Horses are lovely creatures but they don't half make their presence felt. Nothing subtle about them. You don't hear people saying "Hmm I wonder if horses have been down this street". That would be rhetorical. You hear them hauling the "big shovel" out of the shed and settling in for an evening of hard graft. Tommy is a lucky boy. There are not many 63 year olds who get a new job and even fewer who manage to get their undercarriage cleaned without having to pay for it.

RickMcD Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 Grammar Girls must have been "easier" in your day compared to mine. The truth is, I suppose, that Grammar girls definitely had that reputation but I don't know how true it was. We Camphill blokes probably spread it because of our very limited success with the lassies at our school. Maybe John Neilson lassies were a pushover. Nice blazers anyway.
