Hi everyone, I was just checking the news on Hawick since I did a stint as an exchange student back in the days. Loved the town and glad you have this online newspaper so I can see what's happening to my favorite town in Ireland!

September 1974- february 75 I was a volunteer social therapist at Dingleton Hospital in Melrose. I worked on Tweed ward. Some of the Staff was, George Simson, Joe Mcguill, Ian Simson, Annie ?, Ritsuko and Kennie etc. I will be in the Borders 10- 13 of august 2010 and it would be nice to meet someone over a coffe or a drink, who worked at the hospital during that winter. My name was Britt Hörnfeldt as unmarried. Please contact me it would be nice to talk about those days. Britt

Lovely website but couldn't find what I was after. Can someone please tell me the History behind The 1514 Memorial in Harwick of 'The Tired Horse'. My dad was in your part of the world many years back and was going to tell us about this but has forgotten too and as he is now deaf it is very hard to try and get him to understand what you are asking him. Thansk for the help.
