Diz any buddy ken why they got these names
For many years, I and many others, have asked this question. we lived in Castleloan and it had the strange name for this part of the block.
It was named the Piano block, I recall the name but it puzzles me as there wasn't a piano in the block at all - a few mooth organs but nae pianies!!!
There is another strange area across the road from the piano block - this has been christened MOSCOW, but there was never a Russian abiding there - perhaps an old Polish man but never a Russian family
Can any one explain why these strange names were stuck to these places?
If you know will you please contact me on the phone 01506 824923
Sincerely William White Buchanan
