Class 2G
"I am
cross-legged on the ground at the right. In the middle, also cross-legged,
is my best pal of those days, Bob ("Curly") Lamond, now a natural gas
tycoon in Calgary Alberta.
I was the youngest in the class
and he the smallest. We had no self-esteem problems on that account
- there's 'guid gear in sma' bulk'." |

When Gordon sent me the

Panoramic Photo
"The photo I wish I had was
a panoramic photo of the whole school with the staff and the Duke of
Edinburgh on his visit to mark the Tercentenary of the school in 1959.
I dissected a rat for the Prince
in the Biology class and answered a question about it's innards. Poor
royals, I thought, they have to show they are interested in everybody and
every mundane thing every day in life!" |
