I was born in 1970, so I was 16, left school in 87 and started with local council as an apprentice joiner, passed my driving test and my very first car was a fiat 126 ??

haha,been a lot of changes up here over the last 40yrs or so,an influx of guffies buying up estate cottages etc,people more or less moving out of the rat race,london,birmingham,edinburgh,glasgow, even getting a  rush hour, traffic jams   in galashiels,pain in the posteria,so i think it was a case of draggin the shoppin experience out of the middle ages,which i did like,haha,for the influx of incomers to the borders,but kelsae has its sainsburys,lidl,gala has,amassive tesco, asda,boots the chemist,mind you the roads are still draconian,get behind a couple o tractors, and the tail back is terrible.lol,

me first car was a 1977 Fiat 126 with the odd choke and starting levers next to the handbrake.  Used to get 5 of us brutes wedged into it of a friday night. It interfaced with a stone wall near Kilcoole one night whilst i was trying to dice with a  Hot 1340cc Mini. I drove it around with no bonnet for a bit till Dad advised me to scrap it.
