Hibby, rock star... and time traveller. Some boy. Apologies...80's doh. I was still at school after all. the person in question worked with my dad at Uniroyal, as stated. Point is, I was backing up Watties experience of Fish nicking other bands songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The flat was directly across from the Students Union in Potterrow above what was then called a go-go pub, the name of which escapes me. I got the impression that Jo had no interest in football whatsoever. Tony's Cellar Bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class of 75 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I know it's a bit random but always remember as a kid in the 80s watching Blue Peter and there was a dinosaur specialist on from Edinburgh. He turned up on national TV with shirt and tie beneath his Hearts v kneck jumper. Also remember a kids comedy show in late 80s where one of the presenters was Scottish, Robert Harley I think, and he wasted no opportunity to wear his Hearts scarf in sketches. Great stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Rob Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Not sure about this one, but an odd coincidence all the same. I reckon that Pippa Crerar, the Daily Mirror journalist who previously got the scoop on the Dominic Cummings story and is currently releasing horrific revelations about Boris Johnson and parties at Downing St on a daily basis, may be a Hearts supporter. This is based purely on the fact that I noticed this evening that she follows HMFC on Twitter, and as far as I can tell from looking through the list of (almost entirely political) accounts she follows, the only other football account she follows is Scotland. (I’m not counting Gary Lineker or Marcus Rashford here). I didn’t even know she was Scottish, though Google suggests she may have gone to Glasgow Academy.

Doc Rob Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 This is confirmed now, by the way. Messaged her on Twitter and she replied. ‘More my family team than mine these days, though I retain a loyalty. I spent most of my childhood in Edinburgh’ She dropped another exclusive today - Johnson pictured drinking a beer at his birthday party in 2020. Keep them coming… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
