So what can I say about the town I now call home.  It’s best known for the Kelpies and The Falkirk Wheel and if you haven’t been to see them – what are you waiting for?

I am not from here originally but moved here back in 2014.  It’s a great location for travelling as you are central to everything.

Now I’ve been doing a bit of research for “quirky things about Falkirk” and I was today years old when I found out about the Annual Falkirk Duck Race!  (technically it’s actually Grangemouth) Did you know about this??

There are loads of great wee independent shops in the town and from what I have seen, Falkirk Delivers has been doing a great job of supporting these businesses over the last few years.

So come on, get involved and give me some more interesting facts about Falkirk and we can add them in here.
