Bosun11 537 Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Just done the full family touristy bit in Edinbough back in October. I'm gonna be the only one on here who really likes the place. Love the history, buldings the lot. Choc full of arab, yank an jap tourists but so is Anfield any Saturday home game. My daughter loved it too. Only pain in the arse was kids aint allowed in any pub unless your eating a meal and they are fecking sharp on it, so no light refreshment after Greyfriars.

eastcoast 3,725 Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I've worked in many places in Scotland. Everywhere we went there was always anti-English bollocks type stuff at first. Only to be expected really, a bunch of strangers turn up in town and the locals expect the worst. The fact that we were English just added to the mistrust. Never lasted long. People are people and we always settled in for the duration of the job and got accepted. Quickly becomes good craic. We don't like the English but you Geordies are just Jocks with your brains f####d type of thing. During that time a few of the lads got more than they had bargained for though and met their future wives during our stint on those contracts. Nothing wrong with that. An outcross is good for the line now and again as long as it is from good stock, and it was. Did a job in Livingston though but digged in Edinburgh. Met some real arseholes there. Not the working class lads and lasses but the middle class types. The type who think that they are experts on history but don't know the half of it. I blame Mel Gibson. The sort that think they can call a man an English c##t to his face when surrounded by their giggling mates then complain to the hotel manager or cry to the coppers when they end up on their arse, whilst their mates have run to the ladies and locked themselves in. But I've came across those middle class type balloons everywhere. Edinburgh just seems to have more than it's fair share. Some great bars there though. The Burke and Hare was a good one. A lap dancing bar owned and policed by lesbians. Never under estimate the hefty lasses, very efficient at dealing with disrespectful punters. Nee messin' 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
