Growing Up Around The Coffee Bar At The Institute
A Memory of Methilhill.
Hi All,
I remember the same shops on the main street, I lived in Donaldson Road, No 37. From the phone box on the corner were: Clements, Wood then Slaven, Ross, Hamilton,
Young, Herd, Keiller, Beattie, Steele, Johnstone, Gilles, Mcrae. opposite us were Henderson, and Faulds, also were the foster families, the Carstairs, and the Gardners.
I also remember Jock Laing, James Duncan, Brian Docherty, Tom Bryce, the Hewit brothers, Ian Coleman. We never had a lot, but we were happy, all the old haunts,
The Coffee Bar at the institute, the dam, "swimming", nesting up Maiden Hill.
I left in 1963, went to Dunbar East Lothian, to be a Jockey, 47 years ago, will always remember Methilhill as it was then. Been back once in the last 40 years.
Regards,
Russ Keiller.
