My Grandad who lived in Burntisland was a station clerk in Aberdour Station round about that time GG. I remember he was very proud of the flower display at the station, which got several awards. A lot of my boyhood and teenage Summers were spent at my Grandparents house in Burntisland and the walk from Burntisland to Aberdour and back was a favourite walk. In the past few years I have driven through to Aberdour several times and walked to Kinghorn and taken the bus back to Aberdour. A great day out, particularly when it`s a sunny day and the tide`s out. Aberdour has always been a favourite place for me and obviously Burntisland too.

My first School was Charlestown primary and was one of the last pupils there (I think 9 in total!). When the School closed we moved to Limekilns.

Crombie PS is also no more. Its pupils have also moved to Limekilns. Who`ll be next? There are some really tiny schools in W. Fife. You`d imagine it`s not really viable to keep them open. Always sad for the local community to lose its primary school.

My first school was Foulford Primary in Cowdenbeath but we moved to the other side of Cowdenbeath after my first year and transferred to Broad Street Primary. Foulford is long gone but Broad Street still exists.

Where did you get that idea, Paralex? Foulford PS is alive and kicking, with a healthy school roll of 348 pupils. I`ve just googled it. 😁

Well, there you are now GG. Reports of it`s demise are premature.

Looks like a new build and with the greatest respect, unlikely to have been frequented by an auld fossil like yersel.... 😉

Yes, the building I was in was near the bottom of Stenhouse Street, near the High Street. The building was demolished a long time ago and its a car park now. The new building looks like it`s about half a mile away. But good to know there is still a Foulford Primary School. What I remember about living in Cowdenbeath till the age of 9 is the bitterly cold winters and lots of snow. Looks like global warming has ended that.

Looks like you`ve been a Tranent dweller man and boy BigT but as I say to my son often it`s a great part of the world to live in. I`ve really come to appreciate East Lothian since he moved to Haddington.

It is mate. Got everything. 10 minutes north, we`ve got fantastic beaches, 10 minutes south we`re in lovely countryside and half an hour away from Edinburgh. Perfect location and Haddington is braw as well. Some great walks round the town.

Some good info there. Maybe someone`s been taking notes.
