North/York Mates (and members of
'Beat Routes')
Duncan Jones and Al
Dean at Duke's Head, King's Lynn, in November 2001. Duncan writes:
"Al & I struck up conversation as if it had been 35 days since we'd last
seen each other, not 35 years! Of course, having music in common
helps......" |

Pioneers
These two photos were taken 50 years apart and show Peter "Rumble" Read
and Brian "Levo" Leverett. The older photo dates from the
Technical School 'Pilot' course (1951) and the other was taken, some 50
years later, at Sprowston Hall.

Blofield Boys
"Two of North House and 1A intake from 1958 met up in Glasgow on 31st
October. Wally (Gowing) and I ... were born in Blofield about 4 weeks
apart and attended the local primary school. Wally's mother recalls our
first meeting when we were in prams. Our concern was that two old
codgers would fail to recognise each other after 30 years, so we
arranged a rendezvous point, took mobile phones, and imagined a Pythonesque sketch with us standing back to back phoning each other! In
truth we had trouble ... but the phones were not required. I feel sure
it won't be 30 years before we meet up again." Peter Willimott |

1958 North House (Dorm 26) starters
Like Wally & Peter (above), Herb Atkins and Trevor Dodd were also in 1A,
North House and Dorm 26. They re-met on 30 December 2002, after an
interval of almost exactly 38 years (the previous occasion was a New
Year's Eve party on 31st January 1964) and spent a very pleasant evening
digging up shared memories as well as sneaking outside for the
occasional fag (some things never change). Trev has now returned
to his home in Los Angeles. |

North Reunion Down Under
Paul Rivett (left) and Tony Seymour (right) met recently at Paul's home
on the Mornington Peninsula (near Melbourne). Tony had made
contact through Friends Reunited and took the opportunity to meet up when
visiting his daughter in the same area. |

The Brothers Trett
Nancy Stolworthy (Trett) provided this photo of her two brothers,
taken when they met up in 2002. Roger (left) was in East House
from 1959 to 1964 and is now Chairman of an International Dispute
Resolution company, based in London. Philip (right) was in East
from 1961 to 1966 and is now a nuclear
medicine technologist in a private hospital in Lafayette, USA. |

Moira and Jackie in Auckland NZ
"Jackie McLaren (nee Green) and I met and hung out together in Auckland
NZ in August 2007. I hadn't met her since leaving school in 1973.
I have re-found some of the girls who were in Winchester with her, but
we are still trying to track down Teresa Wilson-Pepper. Does
anyone have any ideas? We know she's on the Friends Reunited site,
but she didn't respond to messages." - Moira Scott (nee Greenlee) |

Working Class Movement Library
"A picture of Royston ('Reggie') Futter and myself (John Metcalfe) at
the Working Class Movement Library in Salford. Royston and I are
both now retired and met for the first time in many years about a year
ago. Royston is secretary to the trustees of the library and I am
a volunteer there. I was, when at school, the original spotty
Bolshevik - a member of the Labour Party but of the kind that probably
caused more concern to Harold Wilson than to Edward Heath! I
recall that, after one of my more than usually anti-establishment
statements, 'Charlie' Parker, who was not I think of that persuasion,
informed me that I would 'grow out of it.' Sorry Charlie, it
hasn't happened yet!" - John Metcalfe |

Gloucester First Form of 1965
"In January this year I was back in Norfolk briefly so we organised a
small reunion at the Angel at Larling of all the Gloucester House First
years from 1965 (or 1970/71 Upper 6th). From left to right: Eric
Gilson, Andrew Warnes (Andrew actually joined us in the 3rd form), Mike
Williamson, Mike Hedley, Mike Greenwood and in front David Mason (the
organiser). We can recommend the Angel for a good meal. See if you
can spot us in the House's Gloucester 1965 photo. Unfortunately
Andrew Seeley (House Master of the day) was not in Norfolk at the time
so could not make the reunion." - Mike Hedley |

Gloucester lads and spouses get-together again - after 32 years
Picture 1 was taken 1974/75 just before I emigrated initially to Papua
New Guinea, then on to Australia (East Arnhem Land in the Northern
Territory) 5 years later. The group are all ex-Gloucester: L-R
Clive (Burt) Lancaster 61-68, Hugh (Gil) Poths 63/68, Don Fulcher 63/68,
John (Jad) Adams 63/68 and Mike (Granny) Kirk 63/68. Our respective
partners in front row; Judy, Shirley, Pam, Alison, & Mary.
We have kept in touch all these years and last year when I returned to the UK
for a short visit we all caught up for a reunion at
Knight's Hill in King's Lynn. Picture 2 has the same fellows 32 years
later; still all married to the same girls! A record these days.
