My Dads family all came from Alloa - Main surnames being Archibald ,Sharkey and Ferguson - more so Ferguson - Pretty sure i must have long lost distant relatives still in Alloa because over the generations they had big famlies
Ooh aah Alloa! A braw wee donder aboot the toon 😊 lovely day for it 😀 I'm always getting 'deposited' on walking up there 😄 🤣 The Sandwich Club isn't derelict as far as I know, had some chips there the other day!
It is weird sitting in Dnisi Coffee and watching a video of you walking past DNisi a year ago😅. Lots of change in Alloa. When I was wee it was the original ' dirty old town ' with mills, breweries and distilleries but we still had lots of small businesses and countryside, and could be independent of Stirling. Unemployment was very high though. Now it feels like so many of us are shut off in cars and housing schemes and our town has lost its community .The bank you passed closed before lockdown and the beautiful building is derelict.
@@collachsyoutubechannel Very surprised to hear that. I've lived in Clackmannanshire my whole life and nobody I know would have anything nice to say about Alloa. Maybe in the past but definitely not now.
