Personal Details
We (Jim and Caroline) married in 1973 after our house jobs and have
lived in the West End of Glasgow apart from a wonderful 2 years (1979 & 80)
when we were at Stanford in California.
We have two daughters: Beth, born in 1977, became a consultant
ophthalmologist in Glasgow last year. She’s married to Duncan Macdonald (son of
Ewan and Pat) who’s just become eligible to apply for consultant jobs in
Orthopaedics.
Jenny, born in 1981, is a solicitor working for a large law firm
in Edinburgh. She married Paul Keenan, an aeronautical engineer with Rolls
Royce, last December. Their home is just outside Newcastle.
We are in the lucky position of
getting on well with our kids and of genuinely liking our sons in law!
Our leisure interests
are in travel, art and music – there should be more time for these when Jim
retires from the University later this year.
