Deek Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 We see you ,we just dont like the look of you Golden circle you mean. Unless the chinese have moved the Bathgate borders Aye that's what I meant, the Golden Swallow was visited frequently on the back shift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor FinnBarr Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Whitehill Industrial Estate was always classed as Blackburn as was the Golden Swallow or whatever it is now. (From my days in the police when I worked Bathgate). The A7066 was the divide. I always reckoned that Whitehill Industrial Estate was more Blackburn but the postal address is Bathgate.

Though I was the only one! Quality seems like we could have a Wester Inch section never mind Bathgate. Funnny thing is when I stayed in Wardlaw I was always at the game 10 minutes before kick off. Now I have moved and get here earlier my nephew is buzzing, seen Gowzer and got his picture taken with Lockey Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point I was trying to make was that the address is Whitehill Industrial Estate, Bathgate, EH48. Blackburn is EH47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
way out west jambo Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 im a Jambo in Bathgate. Livingston originally Bathgate now. There was a bus from steins years ago but don't think its there now. If you were going to say there is a hearts pub, Steins/Railway Tavern is the best you'll get. No where near what you get in Diggers, tynie arms etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgiewave Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Richard Brittain: allegedly a jambo from Bathgate, but in reality not a supporter of any team and a fandan in any case. Some delightful comments about the "Bathgate jambo" here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor FinnBarr Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Yeah. As far as I'm aware they were built by Dutch miners about 100 years ago. When I first moved in it was a one bedroom cottage. Big rooms though. Over time we extended and ended up with a 3 bedroom cottage. Loved it there - good neighbours, quiet, big field at the back for our boy and a nice view of the 5 sisters. Just did as much as we could with the place and fancied a change. Made inquireies today in the pub and it seems they were built by Dutch peat cutters who worked at Easter Inch moss, seems theres still a few dutch surnames in Seafield as well.
