@theiaincameron In 1950, my dad finished his MA in Geography at Edinburgh and started his PhD, both of which involved extensive fieldwork in the Highlands. I note he has his dates off by a day here; on the next page he states the Avimore hotel fire was on the 26th, but it was actually the 27th.

@theiaincameron My father spoke of his peripheral involvement in this tragic incident. Here’s the relevant page from his photo scrapbook.

@northernthrux @Western Sad news indeed. Not knowing me at all, Tutis generously agreed to join the advisory committee for one of my first MSc students as we dabbled in some auditory/vestibular psychophysics. He could not have been more kind or helpful to us both.
