Thanks mate the lookback one would have been about 87 i think(im crap at remembering dates) not long before i gave it up, the other two would have been a year or two before but im sure someone on here could put a date to that comp  at Meadowbank.

If that Meadowbank pic is from the Scottish Masters then it was Sunday 5th May 1985.  (Doors opened at 1pm and it cost 3 quid to get in!) ;D

I said it on the other thread, but the height and style on those pics are mint!
Go steady and build your confidence back up.
You'll be doing all that again within a year i reckon.
