Great Bo'ness Institutions
In these Fair photos from a hunner years ago can be glimpsed Bo'ness's version of Grace Brothers - T Wevlings. I seem to remember there being an anecdote about a hotel balcony in Spain and a Wevlings bag full of shit. Can't remember the rest.
This site wis set up by a group i bored thirtysumhings who grew up thegithir in Bo'ness, a quaint former whaling port and mining town oan the banks i the Michty River Forth windin thru the Glens i Scotland. The site is carefully worded in the Bo'ness dialect - please let us ken (know) if u canny understaun it afore breengin in. Be shair ti look it the comments under each poast - they are usually funnier than the stuff we pit up, and feel free ti poast yir ain!! We especially want ti hear fi aw they local petrochemical 'workers' who dae nuhin bit read this site n watch porn oan the nicht shift, in between turning a couple i valves n takin a fly heid doon.
