Re: Tony Robinson
Ken, if anyone on here knows Malcolm Broughton from Ossy, he'll know how to get hold of Tony, they taught at Moorhead together at the same time

It's me (Richard McKinlay) that's trying to track down Tony. Teachers don't usually go on forums, so if anyone is in contact with him and can PM me I'll pass on my contact details.
Thanks, Redtriker

Re: Tony Robinson
Tony is not a member of the Accrington Grammar School Old Boys. If it transpires he did attend AGS, then I would like to make contact with him too.

Re: Tony Robinson
he's a regular on the Crown as well - last time I saw him he was wearing a Sale Sharks coat - shouldn't be too hard to spot if he still wears it - he's a SMCOB like me
reckon he'll be in Taunton today
