West Pilton near Granton, Edinburgh

[ExiledEdinburghlass]

Interested in re-establishing contact with childhood friends from West Pilton Terrace. The time frame is the 1950s. Are you out there Jim, Susan, Donald, Margaret, Derek and Brian - not to forget Graham?

I'm from Edinburgh...

Have you tried the http://www.friendsreunited.co.uk site? I have been contacted by a number of fellow pupils from my school - people I haven't heard from in many, many years....

It might be one way to start the ball rolling for you.

Hi Polwarth,

Thanks for that - I logged on to the site this morning and found one possible former pal. I await her reply - but it was a long time ago!

is the Knowhere boards - most towns in the UK are in it...

There is a message board for the Edinburgh one - maybe you could post there....

This is the main board, go to the message/discussion area (can't remember what they call it!)

Hi Polwarth,

Thanks - I'll give this one a try too. Whereabouts in Edinburgh are you from?

With my nickname, have a guess..... !

And there's me thinking you were in Berwickshire! (grin),
