Message for our visitors



A spate of recent overseas visitors tonight, so I thought I would give a brief overview of what this site is all about.

Bo'ness is a quaint wee fishing vilage on the southern shores of the mighty River Forth, some 19 miles west of Edinburgh, Scotland.

This site is an eclectic mix of stories from our past, and modern times, together with links to the usual web nonsense.

The site is written in Bo'ness dialect, much copied by the local author Irvine Welsh in his many novels, most notably Trainspotting (although my personal favourite is still Maribou Stork Nightmares). Indeed, in tribute to the town, Welsh has recently named his new film production company after a well-known Bo'ness taxi firm.

If you have any difficulties in understanding what's going on, please post a comment and we will be happy to assist you.

Meanwhile, enjoy.
