Dumbarton G82 1LF

Bit of nostalgia here. I haven’t been in Dumbarton for over 20 years. I went to Keil School and when I left I swore I wouldn’t come back, wettest place in God’s creation. Anyway I used to board in Keil so when I travelled back from home, I’d either have a couple of pints here or at the Waverly Bar.
Anyway the old place looks at though it has had more than a few licks of paint since I was last there, but it’s still a wee bit shabby and oddly smaller than I remember. However that wasn’t what it was about in years gone by, it used to have great bands. In fact the last time I was there, Peter goes to Partick were playing, fantastic band, and I sloped off with a local lass. Got belted 6 on each hand for turning up at assembly, still gassed and covered in grass stains.
Oh happy days indeed.
Anyway the pub brought back loads of memories, the beer was good (real ale too), the chat lively and if I’m back there again soon, I’ll spend more time and get the train home.
