Remberbuck 14 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 Lord Robert. The cheery wee ditty he recited to primary school boys on the Inch: Captain Cook took a dook on Niagara Falls He scraped his cock, On a rock, And a fish swam away with his balls. Very naughty. He'd never be allowed out now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My candidate was a patient at the Murray Royal who, legend has it, was put there by his family. I am pretty sure he came from genuine wealth and a Nairnshire estate was in the background, but he was mad. He would wander around the North Inch in the evening, and it was an adventure to talk to him - and I know we are a lot wiser now. He died late 1970s I guess - but I think he would have enjoyed selling match programmes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remberbuck 14 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 Defo Dave Gannon the boatman doon the South Inch pond friendly guy My first ever summer job was with Dave Gannon at the boating pond. Believe it or not, there was a plug at the bottom of the muck in that pond. He pulled it out to see what would happen. The pond was topped up by a pipe that came from the Craigie Burn as it entered the South Inch at the south west corner. As the water drained fron the boating pond, it was filled from the burn, which dried up. The fire brigade was called, Dave got a row - but it wisnae his fault - and it was all very funny. I think he came from Craigie way. I remember him telling how, when he was a boy, he saw the stones being drawn up Kinnoull Hill to complete St Mary's Monastry from where his boatman's hut was on the Inch.

Nelly78 329 Report post Posted October 17, 2009 I will start the ball rolling by giving you the one and only Lady Jean Rattray. http://www.undergroundscene.co.uk/forum/lounge/42731-jean-rattary-r-i-p.html I've seen far more of Jeanie than I ever wanted too. About 10 years ago I met my mum after her work to give her a lift home. As we were walking through the pend from North Methven Street, beside the Clydesdale Bank (in broad daylight, at 5pm), we were greeted with the sight of Ms Rattray getting a pumping from one of her fellow jakeys! Scarred me for life that did. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
