A la recherche du temps perdu
I tried getting a 'Before and After' photo for this picture but my view was blocked by houses and trees. And this photo's not even 20 years old. Old Bo'ness Academy gone, playing fields gone, new Bo'ness Academy built, new houses built...it's like Invasion of the Middle Classes. At least the old Academy looked like a prison - eh - school.

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.
