I rem Niel from 1980 and onwards.Ive never ever forgotten.Neil was warm ge nuine friendly nature.In 1985 Princess Street gardens we was having a chat and watching Polkemmet getting ready to on to the finale.I went to Livingston to meet and have tea with a very warm and friendly Mr&Mrs John Cranston of course Neil. The other time that sticks out was 1997 after the worlds P B C NEIL played a few tunes with a piper at the Hotel.I always had and will have Neil in my top 10.very good drumming hands good roll quality.Neil to me had a very good attitude towards other competitors also didnt forget like some today that he once played in the Lower grades.I near passed out when i got a text stating Neil had passed away.Its sad for Boghall &Bathgate shouldve been Celebrating 2 Grade ONE World PIPE BAND CHAMPIONSHIPS 1982 1983 WITH NEIL AND THE ""TALISMAN"" TOM BROWN
Neil I always think of Niel the second i here the Boghall & Bathgate Band mentioned. Sadly Neil Passed away Without getting With his Beloved Bathgate Band THE UNDOUBTEDLY 2 WORLDS 1982 & 1983 THEY SHOULD WON. THE SPBA IS HAS ROTTEN THROUGH AND THROUGH THERES NOTHING ROYAL ABOUT IT.
I grew up listening to Neil and family playing next door, I will never forget thoses days,
What a touch! Outstanding
