Aussie Floyd

April 22, Edinburgh Playhouse.

Well, what a fab night. This is one of the worlds best tribute bands The Australian Pink Floyd Show.

Aussie Floyd....

Words...........

The pages of live are written, so we are told
Destined to live each day, as chapters unfold
Times of joy, times of sorrow
Days of anticipating a special tomorrow,
our time is measured on this plane
A loved one dies, the partner cries.
The book is closed.

Fond memories remain.............................

The "Borough" Guide to Broughty Ferry

I came across a wee red book the other day, which must of been dated about 1905 ish. It's No. 492 of The "Borough" Pocket Guides. What i found interesting was it has a picture of a Bakers shop Steven & Dron, the Steven was My Great Grandmother family business.

Also I found an advert for P. Kinninmonth, Motor Engineers and Agents. Any idea what make of car is on the right hand side of the garage?

Whisky Galore

I like this,

'Love makes the world go round?

Not at all.

Whisky makes it go round twice as fast'

(Taken from the book 'Whisky Galore' by Sir Compton Mackenzie)

And just to round it off, my Grandfather wired his house in Barra. To allow him to have electricity for the first time.
