Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I remember my dear old mum used to say whenever she saw a Walk. " They always look very smart in their uniforms, very well turned out" Then she'd some comment about their women folk and ironing, but I'd usually stopped listening to her by then. ?

There's a wee car park further up just past the lodge which will have a few spaces Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoodster 162 Posted May 20, 2017 Author Share Posted May 20, 2017 Great parade other than the weather. Some great bands these days - excellent standard and healthy in numbers. GPB great as always. Airdrie Grenadiers are a great little band now. Pollok and Pride of the Grange also stood out for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what i heard mate, i was standing at the park they were departing from and an old couple stopped in their car and asked if i was waiting on them, when i said aye they told me this. I drove back home and noticed they had already laid a wreath at the cenopath, that was supposed to conclude the return leg, so it was definately cancelled.

Not good at all, when I was in the band we would have paraded in anything and everything and all day, in fact bad weather made us stick the chest out further and think bring it on , fs m8.
