Shifting tons of scrap metal is no joke when the temperature is hitting the 80s. But it became a real pleasure when bearded Donald Morrison, 19, and 26-year-old Frank Kay found a rusty old bath at J and W Robinsons yard in Partick, Glasgow. July 1976. In the scorching heatwave of that summer, these two men discovered an ingenious way to beat the sweltering weather while working hard. With buckets in hand, they poured refreshing water from their makeshift tub over themselves with sheer delight. Their humor and resourcefulness brought much-needed relief amidst the relentless heat. As beads of sweat dripped down their faces, laughter echoed through the yard as they playfully drenched each other under the blazing sun. This candid snapshot captures not only a momentary escape from grueling labor but also showcases human resilience and camaraderie in challenging conditions. It serves as a reminder that even during demanding times, finding joy in simple pleasures can make all the difference. Decades later, this photograph still resonates with those who experienced that scorching summer firsthand or have heard tales about it. It stands as a testament to our ability to adapt and find solace even amidst adversity – turning what could have been just another day on duty into an unforgettable memory.
