Hearts training at the Army Polo Fields 21st July 1966
I was out on the dawn patrol doing the
milk round. It wasn’t the most enjoyable of mornings as I had an argument with
our new boss; he's very different from Sid. I'm hoping these girls come up
later on. In the afternoon a bunch of us walked up to the Army's Polo Fields at
Dreghorn to watch Hearts doing their pre-season training.
They were all there
including Donald Ford; Jim Cruikshank; Alan Anderson; as well as Oxgangs' Eric
Carruthers. It was just a wee ten minute walk up the road for him from 94 Oxgangs Bank!
We all walked back home together; I then had to head straight down to Bairds Newsagents at Morningside Drive to collect my newspapers to sell up at the City Hospital. I'm a busy boy. It was no wonder I fell asleep on the couch afterwards; now I'm enjoying my crisps 'n juice.
