chips Posted November 27, 2021 Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) Quite liked the Plough, I was one of the lucky "dad's to be" as all 3 of my daughters were born in the PRI before they closed the matty and started transferring expectant parents through to Ninewells. Infact I still have some of the Save the PRI merchandise stored along with other baby stuff. I enjoyed many celebratory pints with Meikie etc and the place had doss pool tables Edited November 27, 2021 by chips McCarry One Nil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint-johns-toun Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 I spent a lot of saturday mornings and school holiday mornings in the plough as my mum used to be the cleaner! It was great! The landlord always put Asteroids on free play for me!! I can remember a couple of staff christmas parties in the function room too - even though it was the early 80's!!!

Indicator Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 (edited) 1 hour ago, sixties saintee said: It would indeed Sir. Moved to Brahan Terrace from Inchaffrey Street in mid-50's. 2 blocks down from Mercer. Tommy (F1) Dixon stayed in the same block for a time. We moved 'roon' the corner to Mercer in late 50's. Taking up residence next door to Tam Worby of Worbys (Crieff Road) Bakery fame. Edited April 7 by Indicator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cripptik Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 Was there not an old farm there before the Plough? I lived in Kingswell Place once upon a time, long, long ago and I thought I remembered it getting built in the mid 60s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
