Longriggend
A Memory of Longriggend.
I visited my Grandpa who lived at Greta-Lea Cottage in Main St, with my Mother , I remember getting off the bus at the swing park , usually having a wee go on a swing first, then walking along the road .I remember how the stars seemed to twinkle more brightly in Longriggend , and she pointed out and named some of them to me ...I remember her taking my hand and putting it along with hers into her coat pocket to keep warm . My Mothers Grandmother started a few businesses in Longriggend at the start of the century , Rankin,s Buses operated for a few years , the business was lost after a road accident ,after the injured party sued them , Gt.Grandmother claimed her insurance which turned out to be a bogus company , so they lost ....sign of the times...my grandfather and his brothers became bus drivers for Eastern Scottish omnibuses.
