The big lad in the front. Is it no Dr. Jimmy Gordon?
Added by Barbara on 30 April 2007
Yes I reckon that is Dr James Gordon.Looks like Cyril Parkes standing far right in second front row.In the back row I recognise Brian Kemp, Dumpy Campbell? Leslie Sim, George Stout, Patty Sinclair?Front row I recognise Gary Corsie Davy Fox. Any others you recognise?

Yes, that's my father -the big lad at the front. He was a big man to me always! It is Davie Fox, on his right and Alan Findlay, I think, seated second right

That is my aunt Margaret Sim (nee Harcus) as was sitting next to Jimmy Gordon. Can we fill in the blanks?

I was speaking to Bobby Leslie and Mike Drever at the count the other night and I think Bobby said he knew all of them!?

your best bet is to get in touch with Dorothy Thompson (nee Harcus) Her father was a Harcus from Pharay. She lives in Shetland but I'm sure someone in Orkney will know how to contact her.She may even read this.There is also a Bill Hercus who lives in Nairn.
