Take 2:


This photo of some of my friends [left] was sent to me just after I'd left the College.  I was a student in the late 50's , leaving to join my parents in the RAF in Singapore at Christmas 1960, at the end of  my first lower sixth term, having gained 8 'O' levels.  My name then was Barbara Price. I was a boarder in Peel Hall which was the old North House.

On our return from Singapore in 1965, I met up with and married Richard Gilbert, another ex-pupil, an East  House boarder.  We have since divorced but are in touch from time to time through our children. Unfortunately I have, over the years, lost touch with all of them, although I did send a recent e-mail to Philip Bacon when browsing through your 'where are they now' page. Not had a reply to date [but now believed to be in touch - Ed.].  On my return to England, I worked  as a lab assistant in Peterborough hospital and later King's Lynn. I left work as I had the children, but returned to work as a phlebotomist in King's Lynn hospital later moving to Southend doing the same job.  Now I am retired and living near Stansted airport
