„I too grew up in Carnwadric. I was six years old when our family got a "new hoose" on Carnwadric Road at the corner of Cona Street and I attended the "widden" school" along with such boys as Murray Graham, David Torrance, Jimmy Muir, and so many others and girls too like Isa McAuslin, Beatrice Duncan and my teachers were Mr Craddock, Miss Stuart and the love of my young life Miss Phillips. I still have a school picture of around 1935. I left to join the navy in 1942 and stayed in until 1946.“

„Our family was one of the first families to settle in Carnwadric and for me it holds many, many happy memories. It was a beautiful place in those days and our house was on Carnwadric Road at the corner of Cona Street. We had lots of green space to play and being a hop step and a jump away from "Ghandi's Wood" and the Ivy Castle we could fantasise in many ways and in many games. There were not yet any shops in Carnwadric and we had to walk across the wee bridge (just a track then) to go up to Thornliebank for all of our groceries.“

BBC News | Health | Coffee beats tea on heart disease
„They said it might not necessarily be coffee drinking that led to better health, but that people who chose to drink coffee had healthier lifestyles in other respects. BBC Scotland reporter Alan Grant: "Exploding the myth that coffee is bad"However, the study did show that those who drank the most coffee were the least likely to die from heart disease while the opposite was true of tea drinking. Tea has been thought to have health improving properties because it contains antioxidants - particles that have been found to reduce the risk of cancer and prevent good cholesterol turning into bad cholesterol, which can cause heart disease. Coffee, on the other hand, has been thought to be bad for health in large amounts because it can alter heart rhythms.“
