Hi George, yes I went to wee Bonnies and big Bonnies first attended wee Bonnies 1953/4 and had great memories George, Mr Darcy was our main teacher and he was a great craic but I think I'm a few years older than you George. My Ma and Da's tenement window looked directly into big Bonnies play yard as we lived in Fauldhouse st where the steamie used to be. I left Glasgow in 1968 to build bricks halfway round the world and ended up settling in London where are you in England mate ?.

Hi George, you're living in Cheshire then mate, like me it's a long way fae Glasgow, aye Bonnies held great memories for me, first I went to wee Bonnies I think in 1954 [?] and went to big Bonnies in 1960 but was transferred up to Holyrood in 1961. although my best memories was in wee Bonnies, Mr D'Arcy was our teacher and he was a character, he was Celtic mad and on a Monday when teaching us one of us would say what did you think of the match on Saturday Sir ?. Well that that was it no more lessons it was all about Celtic's match till the playtime bell sounded, we might not have had good marks at exam's time George but we were the best informed young Celtic supporters in the soo-side. Yes all great memories of schooldays of long past, what do you work at in Cheshire mate ?. Nice talking to you take care now and all the best.
Danny.
