Did you go to Peninver School? For people who do not know Peninver had a great school which closed in the summer of 1979 and pupils had to Dalintober Primary. At the time of closure there were around 17 pupils. Need to post some old school photos.

Well theres a memory, I remember the school. Sometimes seems like yesterday. I may have an old photo that may scare some..... (amron) Need to go and work the scanner now....

Vic,

Who can you all remember from school? You were the primary above me but obviously one of the younger ones in that year if you were 30 in 2001

Hi MurphysMum-
I'm glad you made it back OK! Thought about you being in Florida with Hurricane Dennis on the move.

[Ship called Dignity]

Vic,
Yes - I know the names. Ewan is now away in the Army but seen him recently.

Did you stay up the 'steel hooses'?

Hi Dorian, thanks! Hubby and I had a great time driving around with our friends. We went to Orlando, Tampa, St Augustine, Daytona Beach and Vero Beach! It rained a bit, but was hot too with temperatures around 95. I doubt it will be that hot when I'm back in the wee toon in a couple of weeks. Fortunately it looks as though most of Florida will escape Dennis, hope it keeps that way as our friends are there for another 3 weeks.

MurphysMum, I'm jealous! I've always wanted to visit the towns you were in. I tried once when we were living in Norway- Wanted to get some hot sun on the beach after a long, cold winter. We flew into Miami ahead of a hurricane, and needless to say, turned around and left. It was rainy & windy. Since then I've only flown out of the airport.

I do have a cousin that has moved to Orlando- Might visit him!

hELLO TO MUMPHY'S MUM, AMRON AND LORNA MAC.
The best fun was going to the swing at the 3 oaks and then being brave enough to go to the PO swing. Remeber we used to get pennies for returning the solripe bottles!! Also had great fun going on the barbours pony Elroid!!

[petewick]

Does anyone remember the corker of a swing that was at New Peninver farm road end?
That was real brown trouser stuff as it swung towards the main road, what a fright I got one day when I swung out in front of the approaching Carradale bus, poor Archie Darroch thought that the Martians had landed!

Hey Petewick did you ever go to the underground den behind the PO. The swings were all great.Poor Archie it used to take us hours to get home as he delivered the papers. Good job he never hit you I suppose Easyfits window in Main Street was a better target. Mayhem on a Saturday. Can you mind the Bionic Baby he was great driver (not).
I still think that Old Old Old Eddie MacCallum and Archie Graham had built the jetty I am still trying to find out as it is older than 40 years mabey the Bellamys helped finish it.
I have an old school photo which my mum was in many years ago I shall send it to Davie to put on as I don't have a scanner. I managed to find out all the names. The teacher was Mrs Crawford. Ring any bells (older generation)?

[petewick]

Hi amron,

I was never privvy to the underground caboodle, but had heard of it.
The bionic baby, there's a thought, he must have worn 6" platforms.
We were more for going round to the Stackie rock whre there is also a cave.

The swing at three oaks was totally brill, we must have been fearless. Dont think would have the courage to attempt that now. Swing beside Sealand was pretty good also, probably even more dangerous though. Happy Days
