The way we were - maybe Part 1.

Digging through the photos last night while watching the dreadful X-Factor Show, bit of a let down after Strictly Come Dancing - now we know why the ratings are tumbling. Back to the photos, these go back to 1965 !!! while in Durham. Fine (fit) young officer, and then probably about 1975 and working at Penicuik.




The crew posing were mainly Penicuik Officers and this was a day out for the lads to the Bells Whisky bottling plant at Broxburn. In the photo, The late Jim Robertson of Bells, Craig Dobbie; Alan Naylor; David Thompson; Bill Aitkin; Des Young; Eddie Anderson; Willie Wintour; Brian Paton; Sgt. George Summors (deceased); Kerry Kinnaird; Willie Anderson; Brian Paton and apologies but I cannot remember who the lady was or the lad with the beard.
Had a quietish couple of days, working in The Dolphin Inn on Friday and Saturday, and on Friday night attended a meeting of Honour Concorde and Fidelity RA at Loanhead - where, although numbers were much reduced due to the North Berwick Installation being on at the same night, we had a good meeting, even I had to do a wee bit on the floor - but a quick meeting which allowed for some socialising afterwards.
