The August OW 100 Club draw was carried out at The Gate in Fair Green and this month’s winners were:- Ev Walker [nee Hutchcraft] – resident of Abingdon & John Head - resident of Hethersett Cheques in the sum of £55.00 each are on their way. Steve and I were joined by Simon Turtle, Jennie Foster [Clarke], Kevin Emmerson, Neil and Liz [Sasada] Bishop and a newcomer, Richard [Dick] Owen and his wife Ma. Liz drew the numbers for us. Unfortunately by the time the photo was taken, Dick and Ma had departed. Dick was in Salisbury in the early 1960’s and now lives in Dersingham. More of the usual banter and reminiscences of long ago antics from our time at Wycol ensued. All being well, the September OW 100 Club draw will be held at The Old Bell in Saham Toney near Watton on Wednesday 23rd September 2020 at 8.00pm. This was where the March draw was supposed to take place before Covid 19 changed everything. Stay safe everyone and I hope to see some of you in September. Cheers, Phil Robinson OW 100 club administrator - Philrobinson55@btinternet.com
P.S. I have been made aware of a revitalised Facebook page recently renamed “Wymondham College Alumni” which has lots of interesting comments and reminicences:- https://www.facebook.com/groups/1532014457127574 It’s a “Private Group” so you might need to be “approved” by a current member.
P.P.S Just a reminder that the “The Chapel Project” appeal was launched with the aim of preserving the last remaining Nissen hut at the college. The Old Wymondhamians have made a substantial donation to this cause although it doesn’t show up on this “running total” page. https://donatemyschool.com/project/page/wymondhamcollege?page=1&per-page=10
If any of the above links do not work, please copy and paste into your browser. Ed.
WyCol Analogy from one of our number. Written before they closed the pubs! I suspect that we might all be gated for some while yet. The headmaster has spoken, and the housemasters are starting to get cross. Tuck shop is shut, or at least has no more sweets. The milkman has plenty of stock apparently, but not visiting anymore – and the sick bay is not taking any customers unless approved by matron. Kinda reminds me of the meningitis epidemic when I were a lad at school!! KEEP SAFE
