"My father, Jimmy Thomson, is 4th from the
left in the back row of this photo of the Edinburgh Gas Dept taken on May
19, 1933.
He returned from Canada during the depression,
to work for the Gas Co, then came out to settle in Australia in
retirement.
I remember, many times, as a boy going with
him down the close off the Canongate."
