Does anyone remember the fabulous sauna suite at the Commie? Beautiful circular design around a central garden and split in 2 for male and female. Single sex meant you could be naked and I used to love going there. From memory, 3 different saunas with plunge pool, a steam room and solarium. Tea and coffee from a central area between the male and female sections. Lovely lounge area. Don’t know why they did away with it at the refurbishment - maybe too much hanky panky?

Maybe one for the older guys - must be 30 years since I was there!

It was closed about 30 years ago. Because the changing cubicles were being used for sex and left in mess with shit on walls and benches and used condoms left. The cleaning staff quite rightly refused to clean. That is from the horses mouth from one of management team at the time.

Understood - it’s always the thoughtless minority who spoil it for everyone else. Same at the beach at Aberlady where there are often guys old enough to know better behaving in an inappropriate manner

I only went there once when I was working.

It was very good from what I recall.

I was very well looked after by some handsome guys.

Times I was there was before I’d experienced the pleasures of man fun - I was much too shy and was only there to look at the naked bods!

I was much younger and naive and really they were older guys.

But I like a hairy man so it was great.

Plus the great accents too.winner

Unlikely, since cubicles did not exist! Same for benches! The changing area was completely open and, during all my years of going there, never once witnessed anything beyond a mutual fondle and certainly not even a hint of shit or condoms (used, or otherwise)! The bit in the horse's mouth must have been too tight, making it 'slavour' (nonsense)

I remember its excellent, efficient design (though I don't remember a steam room and solarium 🤔😳). The plunge pool elevated the experience 🥶👍

Had a lot of fun in the sauna cabins but always on the lookout for the attendant who would sneak up and open the door quickly. Nearly got caught a few times! Oh, the good old days! 😜

I don't remember anything very wild beyond sone hot men naked and excited and a bit of a fondle or quick BJ really. I was about 20 and inexpetienced so it was excitibg then.

Definitely no shagging any time I was there - can’t think of anywhere it could have been going on as the layout was pretty open, including the showers

The only possible place would have been the sauna cabins but, as previously mentioned, you would have had to keep a lookout for the "attendant who would sneak up and open the door quickly!"… regularly/often 😂😳

Of course, this was NOT a GAY sauna

… and the attendants (one, particularly zealous) made an effort to ensure it did not become one by default.

The Turkish bath at Portobello, in the days when there were male only days, was “policed” with similar zeal! Must have been Council policy

Indeed, and that place was completely ruined when it was 'modernised' (from my perspective)

Indeed - a pale shade of its former glory. Same with the Turkish bath at Warrender too!

I used to go there 30 odd years ago, I met a guy from Burntisland there and we hooked up for years.

I’d love to meet him again actually.

Berwick upon Tweed/East lothian/Edinburgh

Used to go on the occasional Sunday morning. It was hidden away at the back of the building and like a private club. A real msns world. Hugely retro, floor to ceiling windows over looking the secret garden, and no painted wood. That deep plungepool was something else. Much better times.

This definitely what was happened my ex was part of the management team at the Commy was about 25/30 years ago and that is reason it was closed down.
