Re: KBGS Reunion, 11/09/09

Sorry about that Derrick. I could have sworn that you could whistle - not tunes! - the kind of whistle you use when controlling a dog. But evidently my memory is playing tricks.

After my uncle Walter started his milk round in opposition to Frank Ingham, I delivered a few bottles before going to school but never graduated to delivery from a bike! Nice to meet up again at the re-union, if only briefly.

Re: KBGS Reunion, 11/09/09

I've sent the reunion group images to Chris for inclusion on the site. One of all the lads and one with partners.
I've also sent 3 images from the Kirkcudbright camp site which I just had to visit during our drive up the West coast of Scotland. One is of the actual site where the tents were pitched and the others are updates to other images of the camp hut.
Wasn't the litle bridge (Nunn bridge)just over the road from the hut? I couldn't find it on the day.

Re: KBGS Reunion, 11/09/09

Hello Alec. In reply to your question regarding the whereabouts of photos sent in by Trevor Pickles. The answer is likely to be that they are delayed being posted by our Website Manager/Controller, Chris Firth, being on holiday(?)in the UK at present. The few photos of the Reunion that I sent to him on the 9th Oct, only just managed to be included on the site on that day, as he was packing for his trip! The Reunion Photos already posted are to be found on the main 'Home' page under the heading 'The School', sub-heading 'Reunion 2009',in RED. Some lovely photos taken by Gill here. So have patience, Alec. It might be another week or more, yet before Chris returns and get the chance to put Trevor's photo's on site. Hope that explains. David

Thanks for the Panoramic photos !!

It was suggested, however, that it looks like the casting line-up for
" Last of the Summer Wine" !!
