This is Cromarty's own J. Macdonald. He gave me this photo when I visited him in Australia late sixties. He was doing famously with the music in them days. Great box player, he did all the musical circuits in Scotland before his family emigrated to New Zealand. I first met him at Circular Quay in Sydney Harbour while I was ashore from the ORIANA P & O Liner where I was a Baker just by pure coincidence, he was possibly on a lunch break or something? Small world.!!! Then I went out to Ozzie we met up again in Sydney. I stayed with him at Milsons Point literally under the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
