Hello John,
I have only just noticed this thread.
I think I remember you. Apart from the red hair, I seem to remember you were quite tall.
I doubt if you will remember me although I think I may have beat you at chess a couple of times!
Apart from Alex, some other names you may recall are Sandy Watson, Neil Bone and Alastair Dobbie. Possibly also Tommy Millar but then there were two of us which makes it a bit easier to remember.
I believe there is some talk of a School Reunion somtime soon and I notice that Abbey Craig may well have you already in his sights as he was also in your year in school.
All the best
TYM
