Can either of you be relied on to give these accounts? Concussion tends to confuse people.
Teachers were fun back then and what they got up to never did us any harm!

Re: Last proper school, not college.
St Christopher's for me. Always remember first day, i was rather shy and timid then having only experienced the rather genteel atmosphere of Woodnook St Mary's Junior School. On being told to fill in some forms in our first class i asked Mr Otter if it was ok to use Black Ink, his reply was.." You can write in Blood for all i care Ladee"....Gulp!!
Best Regards - Taggy

Re: Last proper school, not college.
Bob Cunliffe, Maths and PE it was Cash and in my mind the best teacher there, died too young, I think he was only in his mid 50s. About Mr Howland, {I thought his name was Ron**I received an e-mail from his son Alan a few weeks back telling about his visit to Canada and British Columbia. Worst teacher at the Tech? Mammy Archer!!!
