Alan_R Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Anyone having bother with their post in Midlothian? Dunno if my postie is just on holiday and not been covered properly but over past few weeks it's been erratic. Lots of stuff late (or missing) even missed a hospital appointment as the letter seemingly took over a week to arrive. Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ceefax Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Bloody NHS getting postman to type up, post and then deliver their letters, as well as delivering the usual mail and parcels. I blame the tories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the quite large one on the first corner you come to on Rose Street after turning into it from South Charlotte Street. I think you’re maybe thinking of the Gordon Arms which was pretty wee and was also a real ‘Hearts pub’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall being in there 10 years or so ago and an ex hearts player was behind the bar. Then again, maybe as usual I'm taking pish.

In 1996 a guy who had something to do with the place produced around 20 charcoal etchings of six of the Hearts team to celebrate the team reaching the League Cup Final (4-3 Rangers ). I was lucky enough to get my name down quickly for one of them and have it on my wall out here. The players were Levein, Locke, Allan Johnston, Berry, Alan Lawrence and wee Robbo. I’ll take a pic of it and post it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually looked better when it had glass on it but it got broken in transit when we were moving over here.
