Born in Kbt in 1944 and flew the nest in 1961. I couldn't have wished for a better place to grow up in and my schooling at the Johnstone Primary and Kirkcudbright Academy sure paid dividends. Travelled the world ever since but nowhere gave me the same feeling of being home again, than my infrequent visits back to see family. Went to school with DC (Duncan) and also met Innes Ireland. It is a small world.
My home town 1935 to 1953 when I joined RAF A lot has changed but still as I remember it Johnston School then Academy then apprentice baker at John Kennedy’s The Tattoo is brilliant, missed it this year owing to illness Will be there back end of May for a few days Happy memories Bill Smith ex Victoria Park
It's very difficult to get music that RU-vid will let you use because of copyright issues, I do enjoy listening to the border pipes and they were the nearest I could get without getting the video blocked in certain countries.
