Kirkcaldy in General

 

Newest Review: ... Walters and each and every year since the rides have got bigger and faster. As a local I have been visiting this market for as long as I can remember and before. Although it has always been a fairground during my years of coming it has still changed an awful lot, with new rides coming most years and even the way it is run changing noticeably. Gone are the days where the showmen used to run round collecting the fairs of people as the ride was starting and having to hunt them down at the end of the ride for your change. Its all pay booths and tokens and tickets these days which does take away some of the atmosphere of the old days where it wa... more

this review isnt actually about kirkcaldy in general but rather about europes longest travelling fair which sets up once a year along kirkcaldys prom! Although many of you will never have heard of it this travelling fair is world famous for many reasons not least the fact that it is still to this day the Europe’s longest travelling fairground. The giant Lorries carrying these fairground rides roll into Kirkcaldy at the same time every year and they have been since it started as a weekly market for traders, farmers, craftsmen and the like. In 1305. The market opens each year on the closest Wednesday to the 14th of April and stays open till the following Monday ...

Kirkcaldy is such a boring place. There is nothing much to do here at all. I live in a place called Kinghorn. It is about 2 miles away from Kirkcaldy. The shops in Kirkcaldy are pretty much pathetic. There are about 6 mobile phone shops, 3 Card shops, a Boots, Superdrug, International, Mvc, Our Price, New Look, Dorothy Perkins, Woolworths, The Turret and other little independant retailers. The shops get a bit boring after a while. There has been a lot of shops closed down so it could be made better. The cinema ther has also been closed down. Again that could also have been made better. I don't think it had been redecorated in ...

Despite what you may believe from reading some of the reviews in the Fife section, St Andrews isn’t the biggest town here. No, it’s not even the best! That honour is reserved for Kirkcaldy. Pronounced Kirk-Coddy (NOT Kirk-Cal-Day, please!!) Kirkcaldy is the largest town in Fife (although that is very heavily disputed by anyone from Dunfermline, Glenrothes, St Andrews, Leven, Lundin Links, Aberdour, Methil…!) and is, as you may have guessed, my home. Although I was born in Glasgow (please don’t tell anyone!) I was brought here as a toddler and I consider myself to be a Fifer. Known as the Lang Toun, for it’s long shape on ...
