ARGH!!! I am soooo rubbish at this - had to get Joe O to help me reset my cookies or whatever. So then I read and thought I'd replied to your query - except all the stuff I wrote was not visible!
So - have just bitten the bullet and copied . pasted it on open forum - minus your name!!!
(someone now needs to give me a lesson in replying successfully to private messages!!!)

Hi weerover - did you ever go to Chez Suzettes just down from the
crossroads in Hamilton (Lanarkshire, not Ontario!!)
I was at Hamilton Academy from 1960-1966.... didn't live there., was
from Garrowhill area a good number of miles away - Hamilton Academy
took pupils from all over Lanarkshire that had achieved high grades
in 11+ exam!! (Didn't do all of us a lot of good, maybe have been
better to be a high flyer at Airdrie Academy of Uddingston Grammar,
than one of the crowd at Hamilton?!)
I am not sure if I remember a folk club - I lived quite far away and
had to get school buts home. - Did go to folk nights at Tall Tree club
a bit farther in towards Glasgow, also ones in our local
church hall.... I was also in a folk group while at Hamilton - by
accident! Twin brothers from the area / also at school were seeking a
female vocalist, I think when we were in 4th year> A pal asked me if I
would sing with her while she auditioned - and the brothers came to
me later and invited me to sing in their group! (playing tambourine,
singing This land is your land etc!!)
It was the era of folk type music on tv, and Corries concerts-----also
Scotia Bar etc, tho we wernae really old enough to gain entry -all so
long ago....
A xx
NB Did you ken Jack Foley?

I was an habituee of Chez Suzette, I even remember it opening, tanner extra tae gang doon below. I went to St John's Grammar, and Hamilton Folk Club when Tommy Kearney ran it, he was in a Youth Hostel group in Motherwell along with me.
My first wife went to the Academy but before your time GM.

Thanks John, my memories of Chez Suzettes are vague - fancy co9ffee machine upstairs,, dark cellar down stairs! we all thought we were sooooo cool---!!! Played a game called 'arches'; where females were captured and had to free themselves after a kiss with both make arch formers!!!!   
It was kinda difficult winning a place at Hamilton, only a couple of others from my primary class of 54 got there - had a longish bus journey each way, and when older, playing in after school sports teams or singing in opera choir we had to get the occasional service bus back home It was a lonely existence! I think my brother had a much better time being a high flier at Uddingston, the local secondary!   
Was your wife in the school operas? They were legendary!
