Linda Clark from Portobello High School

Linda Clark is looking to trace her long-lost school friend Paula Simmons.

The pair grew up in the early 1950s in the Abbeyhill area of the city, living in Stanley Place and Taylor Place.

Both women attended Portobello High School and Paula later married a Dutchman called Loet.

The couple moved to Holland for a number of years before returning back to the UK to settle in Peterborough.

Linda thinks Paula will be about 58 now and is very keen to make contact.
