where it's due
When approached about the picture, which was uncovered in the Evening News archives, a red-faced Mr Glynne-Percy said that he and a group of friends had posed in various guises as a joke and to raise money for charity.
He said: "That was a long time ago - it was more than 20 years ago that it was taken.
"It was a calendar that we created for charity and it caused a fair amount of amusement at the time.
"It was just a few friends that got together and got dressed up in a variety of different guises. It was all a spoof of the Pirelli calendars but instead of girls it was all men.
"It was long before WRI - the women's one that came out - and at the time it was quite an unusual thing to be doing.
The calendar was created in 1985 when Deirdre Livingstone, who later became the British Tourist Authority's millennium marketing manager, persuaded 12 of Edinburgh's most eligible bachelors to pose.
Granton-based photographer Drew Parnell took the pictures and created the pre-Chippendales collection of pictures.
It was titled Spare Tyres, and was intended as a spoof of the Pirelli tyre company's famous calendar featuring scantily-clad women.
