The photographs are courtesy of Stuart Mitchell, Peebles area, who formerly worked at Glentress Forest.

Great action shot of Brian (surname not remembered now) heading for the water at the Ponds, Glentress Forest, courtesy of his forestry work mates. The attached PDF follows his progress into and back out of the Ponds.

Can anyone provide his surname and also the year that is happened circa mid 1980s?

Note that this water and its overflow system is featured in an earlier photograph by Stuart when under construction. See Forestry Memories record No 4155.

Brian's surname won't come to me at the moment but this would have been 1985. I was a mid year student at Lothian and Tweed at the time. Brian was absolutely terrified of what would happen to him on his stag night! Comment left on 31 October 2019 at 18:13 by Ian Briscoe
