Interesting to read all the comments. I was at the school between 1961 and 1964 when I was whisked away South to attend the Dolphin Preparatory School near Newark. Miss O'Reilly lived on Newminster Road in Fenham. She wrote to me in 1975 when my eldest son was born, but she passed away soon afterwards. Clive Moore, you had an elder brother, Michael. I remember me and you got into trouble once for walking back to Fenham from some jaunt in the City Centre ( probably a visit to the Tatler) we were obviously late. Your grandmother lived on Hoyle Avenue I believe. Mr Lowther presented me with a Charles Buchan Football Annual which I have still got. He used to say he saw me at St James' misbehaving. I know he was not well many years later as some of my relatives attended the school told me they were the Nelsons. I have to report now that I am a Nottingham Forest Supporter. Seem to remember taking the Nelsons to see Peter Hindleys testimonial. Other guys I remember from the school are Alexander, Nordmann, Stuart Brown ( whom I know has passed on) Brown, Todd, Ainsley, Dawes, Scholey, Cairns, Fenwick, Snowdon, the Foster brothers, Doxford, Wardle, Turnbull, Redhead, Fred Clark, Gladstone, Porritt??, Mc Donald, the Liddle brothers and know doubt more that don't spring instantly to mind. Other teachers, East who died recently in Sussex, Beckerleg, Tarrent, Hill, Henderson, Cutts and Pickard. Any reunions planned? |
