Love the hair on some of the boys, a few of them have a lot less of it now. Aye, those were the days.
ReplyDeleteMiddle row first left boy is Bertie Palmer.
ReplyDeleteIf I recall correctly the photo was a just after we took part in the News of the world Shooting competition, I think we won it I know we did really well, also the cup in Front of Tommy was when he won Best dressed Highlander, at the Annual camp in Leek which was 1993, I can recall we were billeted with the Cadets from Auldearn and on that day everyone pulled together to make sure every single piece of Tommy's kit was perfect. I think that every cadet of that period had a lot to thank Billy Snr and George Innes for
ReplyDeleteTarzan David can you tell us who is on the right of Gerald Conaghan ive got everybodys name apart from him. By the way its been 35 years or more since i last saw you on your paper round up at Queenspark sorry Shang Hi Pity Cleaners shop isnt there anymore i dont think he would forgive us now for pinching his sweets never mind we could always rely on Yackapos shop
ReplyDeleteDavi/Tony thats the guy I can't place. Found out that 1st youngster in middle is Bertie Palmer. David I take it you meant 1973 and not 1993 ? I havent seen ronald mackay or davie connachan in years which is a shame as we grew up together in Barbour Road.
