Hello
there, We the Club (Edinburgh Blues SC) are a Rally going club that
travel up and down the Country and Europe respectively. We have
young and old members who all enjoy each others company. (Most of
the time, haha) If you would like to come along and see what
were all about. We can be found every Wednesday Evening in the
Arcade Bar. The Arcade sits unassumingly on Cockburn Street almost
opposite the upper end of Fleshmarket Close. The stone-floored
Public Bar is accessed via the front door opening onto Cockburn
Street, while the first floor Lounge and dining area is entered from
Jackson's Close, which runs up the side of the Arcade. The Arcade
was previously known as Jim's Inn. It achieved some fame as one of
the first pubs in Edinburgh allowed to open all day: until then they
all closed between 2.30pm and 5.00pm every day. Accounts
differ as to whether Jim's Inn was chosen by the City Council to be
one of the first because they thought it was likely to prove the
experiment a failure - or because its location was very convenient
for the councillors! Either way, afternoon closing is now just a
footnote in history. This bar has now been taken over by Polish
Management who are more than happy for us Edinburgh Blues SC, to
conduct our Wednesday night meetings. Some of the
people below would be your first point of contact. (JUST DON'T ADD
ALCOHOL) |
