Moved to Falkirk

by Harry Boddice


In late October in 2018, I moved with my family to Falkirk, which is a historic industrial town about an hour away from either Edinburgh or Glasgow. It’s situated in some relaly nice farming country, has a series of interesting canals and associated buildings, and a surprising abundances of cafes that do good cakes and coffee. i havent met much of an art society yet, but hopefully over the next year or so I will find my people, as I always do when I move to a new place. Its a friendly place too! you can get a strangers life story on the bus before you ever learn their name, and my daughter loves being so close to the woodland walks in the area west of Falkirk - along the actual roman history of the Antonine wall. its beautiful in many ways here, and I look forward to seeing it all in spring and summer!
