Hi
This site was recently forwarded to me (Jean Porter). I worked at Auchenharvie as the lab technician between 1972 - 1976. This was my first job before going to the University of Glasgow. I keep in touch with only a few of the original staff. I have very fond memories of my time at the school.
With regards
Jean
