Watching the Glasgow gas drill clip made me thankful that there never was a gas attack.
But it also reminded me of my tottie houkin' experience in Crail with my Woodside School, Glasgow, classmates.
We had billets in the local school which, of course, had no bathing facilities. Imagine, or perhaps not, 30 or more schoolboys
waiting for the digger to come round and getting thoroughly filthy in the process of finding all those potatoes.
We must have looked and smelled pretty bad.
An interim solution was found when we were taken by bus to Anstruther and shown into the local gas dispersal center which had lots of showers!
So at least in one instance, good use was made of the nation's investment - and who is to say that Crail and vicinity did not have an improvement in air quality as a result.
