Redforever86 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 If it's for a hard wearing area, hall, stairs, lounge etc get something that is 80% wool, 20% polyfitever and 40oz plus. For a bedroom I'd just go for what you fancy and nae really cheap shite. Link to comment

Extra 3 weeks to wait for it but not fussed about that one bit if it means that big a saving. Hope it wasnt an independent shop you screwed over - bad form that. Correction, was Andersons, nae Archibalds. Link to comment

Someone punched a hole in the wall from the pool room and you could shout your order through the asbestos and fiberglass to the bar area and a manny resembling the character often depicted in the Red Final would bring through the pints and Reefs.

A very quirky purveyor of beers, alcopops, and spirits. I remember the boy you are referring to, looks like one of the characters fae the huns in the Red Final. Last time we was in there, it ran out of beers and spirits, and sadly yet another hostelry was closed down soon after. Link to comment

Crawled oot of your but 'n' ben again to gather together some peat from the local bogs to burn to heat up your abode, Henry? I feel for you Northern Islanders at these bleak, wintry times. Always a pleasure hearing from you?. Link to comment

It's been knocked down for years and I'm sure it was shut for a while before that. It can't have been open much later than that period. Link to comment

We stopped off at the Red Lion (turned into a gook in 2007) in Larbert that day min, the day I got nicked. It was the 3-2 defeat away to the tims (Craig Bellamy winner) in 2004-05 was the last time we were at the Miners Club. Link to comment

It was pretty classy the last time we were in there, unaware that it had changed from a pub into a Chinese restaurant. We ended up going to the Clansman in Plean after that before heading off to paedophilic park or iprix (Copyright of Pissed-off Merkie). Link to comment

The only thing I remember being across from it was an underpass (a muggers/robbers paradise) clarted in graffiti, leading to a poverty-stricken area of Stirling, once you passed over the roundabout between the pub and underpass. Edit: Sorry it was/is the Commercial Hotel in Larbert you are referring to. I thought you were on about a pub across from the Miners Club in Stirling. Link to comment
