"This photo of a man and child fishing at Inverleith Pond, in the 1950's, looks remarkably like my dad and myself.

My dad's name was Allan S M Boyle.  I can vaguely remember using a jam jar with him when I was about 5-ish, trying to catch sticklebacks in the pond.

He took me to Inverleith a few times, either fishing or watching the boats sail, and eventually sailing my own 'wee' boat."
