Dindeleux Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Inspired by the BBC documentary "Storm that saved a city" last week and my own geekiness for looking at old pictures of them building the M8 motorway this is a thread for you to post some pictures of things from the old days. The old days is classed as pre-2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I love this photo from the family album: it's my Great Granddad outside Holyrood Palace on a bus trip, early 1920s. He's the one in the bus 2nd right of the bus driver looking like some kind of Mafia boss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
