Video memories of Bo'ness Children's Fair 2010

  • A still from Abbeydooh's Bo'ness Festival Parade 2010 video

It's only a few days to the 2011 Fair, so let's take this opportunity to look back at last year's event, courtesy of some great footage which has been posted to YouTube.

The procession is central to Fair Day, and here are a great couple of clips posted by Abbeydooh:

Nowhere in Scotland puts the same effort into decorating their town as Bo'ness. Here's some great footage of the 2010 Fair Arches by dottyost.

Finally, the presentees. Fair Day is a spectacular event, and here's the spectacle caught in detail by lewisarcher2001.

Remember, if you have video or pictures of Bo'ness Children's Fairs in years past, they're very welcome here. Why not share them with the town?

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
