Grandpa’s cufflinks

This evening Ally and I were having dinner at Oran Mor, before going to see the comedian Limmy talking about his autobiography. It’s interview time for the trainees who are looking for permanent posts at Ally’s firm, and he had one of his interviews today, so he was telling us about what questions he had been asked and how he had answered them. James pointed out that Ally was wearing the City of Glasgow cufflinks that had been presented to my Dad on his retiral, and I thought that he would have been quietly pleased that Ally chose to wear those cufflinks to an important interview all these years later. I do wish that my Dad had lived long enough to see his five grandsons grow up; he would have been so proud of all of them.
