I was at school with Peter Harrison in the same class and have very fond memories of him. We went to Paisley ice rink a couple of times. I left Rutherglen in 1969 never to return. Over the years I have always wondered what happened to Peter. I am pleased to see that things worked out well for you.
Take care, kind regards, Helen

My father John McGuire was a friend of John’s back in the early 60′s. I would dearly love to contact John if he remembers my Dad who came from Blantyre. Can you help with an e-mail address.
