Here is a photo of my Mum (age about 8 1/2, her brother Davie Love, age about 3, My Nanna Lizzie Love & the Parkie at Leith Links in 1930 - too bad the photographer cut a bit off the top of his head.
Hello John:
Thought you might enjoy seeing this. I've been checking through some of my Dad's war time stuff and came across it. It's from the Admiralty Berthing Office in Gourock 1942. Don't know what they meant by 'transform it to a dope' . Is that what they thought of their fighting men? I sure hope not!

My Grandmother, Lizzie Love (about 16 yrs.)
