Everything gets stripped out and dumped for the MTV generations- theyr'e the ones keeping the pubs in business today. Thus bland plastic pubs, loud crap music and rent-a-crowd punters guzzling shots and Breezers

Looks like The Abbotsford in Rose Street. I haven't been in there for thirty years (I first went there as a teenager in hopes of spotting Hugh MacDiarmid). I suppose it's now a themed student bar. Edinburgh bars used to have a special atmosphere but have now become really crap.

Amazing! Love the scenes of Chris walking along the walls and curbs and that period snap-shot inside the Abbotsford, just a shame Sydney Goodsir Smith wasn't tagging along, love to see some footage of him too
