When I was a youngster I sang in the Chapel choir, Canon Taylor was the head man at the time. There used to be about 12 of us but as the years passed away there were only 2 of us left by the time I was 13/14, myself and Robert Bourhill from Penicuik. Our Sunday morning duties were lighting the candles, and preparing the Altar when it was time for the service, we followed behind just the two of us singing and then heading to the back of the Altar one on each side. I always loved to stand beside the Apprentice Pillar – it always felt special to me and still does. My childhood was Rosslyn Chapel.
