Hi Again Martin
I forgot to put my e-mail address in the last message post.
Ken Redding is married with 2 girls, I am still in e-mail contact with him.
The last I heard of Steve Good was that he had emigrated to South Africa.
Clive Waller is living in Margate in Kent (where I lived myself for 10 years), Clive is married with 2 teenage boys.
I wonder what happened to Alan Cooper (The biggest Adam's Apple in the World !!!)
The list of teachers certainly brings back memories !!!
I have tried to remeber as many of the teachers nicknames as I can....
Mr Crombie (Lads ! Lads !)
Mr Roper
Mr Herman
Mr Kelly (Bummer)
Mr Hogarth
Mr Clark (Nobby)
Mr Ramsbotham (Sheepsarse)
Mr Barber
Mr Philips
Mr Dalton (Dapper)..Hitler!!!
Mr Mead
Mr Paine
Mr Devine (Inchman)
Mrs Crocombe
Miss Young
Miss Ball
Mrs Lasman
Mrs Poulton
Another One is..
Mr Stevens (Robot)
Also Mr Rance's nickname... (Ratter)
(Apologies for any offence if any of these ex-teachers are reading this)
As for myself..
I married an Irish girl in 1987 and moved to Ireland in 1991, we have 2 boys aged 6 & 12. I am a computer systems engineer and I work for Dell Computers.

Stephen, I was trying to find out what had happened to some of the old friends I went to school with. I received this web address
and noticed many of the teachers that taught you were the same for my classes. I attended Lady Bankes from 61-66, and Bourne from 67-72. I do not remember your name or any of the people who have responded. I think the site is a great idea for linking old friends together.
What happened to them;
David Hogg
Alan Cooper
Dean Johnson
Ken Reading
Brian O'Connor
Paul Ducheck
Clive Waller
Simon Simms
Stephen Good
Bill Mardell
Keith Mahoney
Brett Anderson (USA)

When are you likely to be over again..........Russel's gagging for a beer. (We'll probably be in Dublin again when you're in London.)
I still see Alan Coooper walking down Field End Road every now and then.........& ....Yes. He does still have the biggest adams apple in the world. I think he still drinks in the Clay Pigeon.
Keep the E.mails coming...........
Martin.......If you're reading this, sorry I haven't replied to your mail, but I,ve been trying to get this new computer sorted.
