Hi Gorbolion,
Interesting post and your mention of the "Scramble " took me back to the 70 's where I had the
privilege to give away my younger sister at The Old Rutherglen Road Parish Church and here was my
one and only chance to throw out some coins for good luck and tradition and in my haste to get there
and help my sister I left all my coins at the flat that I stayed at .I felt a right "meanie"as I thought back
to the times when I would fight for the threepenny bits and sixpenny bits etc. etc.
Best regards Reg
