Further education
16 January 2025
When I was a lad in London, there was an alleyway that lead from the back of our school to the back of the local pub. Friday lunchtime saw an uneasy alliance between teachers and 6th year pupils as we both headed for the same hostelry, staff to the public bar and students to the saloon. A vow of silence endured on our return back to class after lunch.
Different days now of course, and these two particular pillars of Edinburgh's Gorgie don't mix their clientele, although some individuals must surely have graduated from school to pub over the years?
