Howdy Doody Jambo Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Walking along Gorgie road , couldn't help but notice some vandals have struck by spray-painting major graffiti from the roof-top the word ''Rocket'' and various other Chavy Neds tags onto the Merchiston Hearts Social Club . Hope the police catch , charge and severley punish the culprits involved , also a good boot in the staines may bring this sort to their senses . Bring back the burch for this malicious damage which is now very common on Edinburghs streets . Why do weirdos do this sort of thing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gods a Jambo Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I stay in gorgie and it is a polish mob who have been doing the spray painting. They have also covered a building at Muireston and like to write the word "mate" and "haggis" all over the shop.

I too remember the "McCabe Grass" stuff but unfortunately can't shed any light on it. I also remember a lot of vitriol written about a girl/woman whose name eludes me but she was described as a "whoor". Story I heard about that was that she passed on HIV to someone. Not sure how kosher that is, but the name and "...is a whoor" was written on the pavement outside Jenners just at the corner with Sth. St. David's Street and at several other places about the city centre. Pamela someone perhaps? Surely not the same one.........! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe McCabe was a bus driver who's son got involved with drug dealers, they came to his door to threaten his son so he phoned the police, not sure if they got caught but he was living in fear after that. He died a few years ago. He lived in the houses at the bottom of Longstone Road at the roundabout beside the bus garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire Gorgie/Dalry/Slateford areas are covered with this sort of graffiti'd ****. It's seriously getting on my breasticles. Really brings a whole area down when you see this crap scrawled all over the place. When I lived in London it was endemic in the area I lived in, a few of us got together and made some discreet enquiries, found out who was responsible and had them 'dealt' with, bingo! Overnight, no graffiti. Thing is these social inadequate erses must get up at about 2am to go out and ruin areas like this. Utter [filter edit]. Not sure what can be done about it, other than the actions I described above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The area of Gorgie is really becoming quite bad regarding graffiti and it has to be said it is polish people who are doing it. The worst one, is the one, at Muirieston as that is the whole side of a building, there is also one just along from the Chesser bar that is supposed to be a house or some ****.

To be fair it is not just the polish. Iam Gorgie born and bred, but the place is now like a UN meeting, that may be all fine and dandy for some but, i have watched a place i love become a ******* hole. My stair is filled with everyone and anyone and changes monthly due to the houses being let out. The area has no community now and is just a mish mash of crap.

Maybe it's aimed at Tynecastle Garage by someone who had a botched repair job, rather than MHSC. Speaking of Poles, one of them cut me up at the Gogar roundabout today as I was coming home from work. Red Scooby Impreza, in left hand drive, with a bean can exhaust, scruffy driver and Polish plates. I was about to get annoyed, but then realised how utterly sad he looked.
