Gordon Brown’s Party Tips For An Alterantive Edinburgh

by | 28th, August 2008

Gordon Brown says bring a brick to party.

From an ebay listing for Brown’s ‘Alternative Edinburgh’, penned by Gordon Brown in the early seventies:

“This book was edited by Gordon Brown when he was a student in the 1970s at Edinburgh University. It is entitled Alternative Edinburgh and was penned at the time when Brown was a socialist student leader – it is full of suggestions of how to live in Edinburgh for next to nothing!…my favourite one is how to turn up at a party without bringing a bottle with you – so what do you do… you bring a carrier bag of empty cans and put two half-bricks in the bottom of it to weight it down“.
