Dalry School

"I think that Ales McEwan's brother may have been called Tom.  If that's correct, we were in the same class at Dalry Road Primary School."

Money-Making Schemes

"I shared his money-making schemes of helping the ladies with their washing loads from the ‘steamie’ to the bus stops on Gorgie Road, and taking the after-match beer bottles back to the pubs. I took mine to the Tynecastle Arms (or Campbell’s as it was known locally) but had to stash them away until the Monday as Campbell’s was too busy on a Saturday night to take them."
