When Milda wrote to me and asked if I'd be interested in showing her AA class photo I said to my wife I've gotta see this, never realising AA stood for Ardrossan Academy - thick at times! Yep that's me. Such nice people we have on threetowners and Milda is but one. This has also been added to the School's pages HERE

Re: Ardrossan Academy 1957/58 Class Photo
Hi, Milda,
I must have been a few classes ahead of you at the Academy.
From your photo I recognise Ray Kerr. Her brother Jack was in my class, good looking fellow.
I knew Ray better after school as she was friends with Agnes McNeillie who worked with me in the Paisley Trustee Savings Bank.

Hi Netta, I knew Agnes too,she is a nice person and she was also friends with a girl called Liz Pllu,whom I quite often bump into when I manage to go over to Saltcoats. The girl who is beside me in the photo (Phyllis Guthrie) her dad had a butchers shop in Ardrossan,do you remember it? Well Phyllis and I got in touch through Friends Reunited about two years ago and now keep in touch regularly,which I really enjoy. Regards Milda
Re: Ardrossan Academy 1957/58 Class Photo
Milda, when we were in Ardrossan last year and walking along South Beach, I mentioned to my sister-in-law that I would like to find the phone no. for Agnes as she lived in South Crescent, loud laugh followed. It turns out Agnes now lives almost across the street from said sister-in-law. So we were able to catch up while I was there. She hasn't changed and we did talk about Ray Kerr who is married to David Gillespie from Saltcoats.
Did Liz Pluu work in a baby shop in Saltcoats, I know the name and think I bought from her for Bobby's neice when she was a baby.

Re: Ardrossan Academy 1957/58 Class Photo
Netta I can't remember what Liz did after school.she could have worked in a baby shop ,but I don't know.I thought Agnes had married a Frank Millar and gone to Australia,probably wrong,maybe thinking on somebody else.Not Agnes I remember her very well.Just maybe wrong in what she went on to do . Haven't heard of Ray since school days. Milda
Re: Ardrossan Academy 1957/58 Class Photo
Agnes and Frank went to South Africa, I think. He is working on the oil rigs now.

Re: Ardrossan Academy 1957/58 Class Photo
Frank Dorian is now in London.
I had a music shop there for 30 years. Now retired.
Some of you might remember me from when I worked at the Pavilion Bowl.
My brother Trevor and Sister Linda still live in Ardrossan and Stevenson. My brother Douglas lives in Kent. None of them went to the Acadamy.
I wonder if anybody knows my old friend Colin Kelly. He did not go to the Academy but lived in Saltcoats. Do not know if he still lives in the area but would love to contact him.
Anybody know they can get me at

Colin lived in the first block of flats the were built in Quay Street.You might also remember Hugh Davidson who was in Auchenharvie Road Saltcoats and Ronnie Innes from Ardrossan.
