Do you Remember Kelty like I do

by Just Jock

Wha remembirs thi hundrid fit brig ais it spand frae side tae side
Ain wha remembirs thi Brickwark Bings wi its paths ain aw its slides
Ain wha remembirs a swim in thi "Dooki" Aur fishin doon thi "Ploom"
Ain wha remembirs thi Kelty cyclin club maid oot o wan wee room
Ain wha remembirs thi buckit cairts wi horses fu of pride
Aur a trammi doon tae Cowdenbeath rattlin fae side tae side
Aur wha remembirs cairin a miner's bag tae earn yersel a shillin
Aye thay wir thi daes a remembir weel
whin we wir yung ain willin


Just Jock says

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
