KILBRANDON SWI kicked off the new session with ‘Old Oban in Photograph­s’. The speaker was Bob McCulloch, assisted by Charlie Drummond.

Born and brought up in Oban and delighted to share some of the history of the town and the surroundin­g areas, Bob and Charlie gave members a glimpse into what life was like in the past through a slideshow of old photograph­s acquired from various sources, along with a very insightful commentary.

Members were fascinated to see old photos of the Atlantic Bridge, old Easdale with a steamer coming through, Argyll Square, the Hydropathi­c Hotel and much more. It was a truly interestin­g and pleasurabl­e evening.
