For this peasant dance we are all wearing our Domestic Science (Cookery) aprons. We made them in needlework classes. Our Domestic Science teacher was Miss Dixon and our needlework teacher was Miss Hole.

Miss Hole had an incredible memory. Although she had no occasdion to teach me, when I arrived for an old scholars re-union 20 years after I left the school she recognised me and named me.

How did you hear about the reunion, David?

There was a colleague in the office where I worked in 1980 who was invited to this re-union, whereas real oldies such as myself had not been. She told them about me when they decided to extend the invitations to older old scholars.

David: Thankyou for explaining.I hope that the reunion was enjoyable. I wonder if many 'oldies', as you call yourself, eventually heard about the occasion and attended?

Word must have got out because I met a number of people from my old class. George and Eileen Goodbody and Diane Herbert were among them. There was a happy re-union with our form master Mr. R.W.Daniels who by that time (1980) was head of a primary school.

I would have loved to have attended if possible at that time. George Goodbody lived in the Bourne Avenue area and remember him going fishing with his friend who lived opposite us. Eileen used to go to Cranford Park School before Mellow Lane. Which school did Mr Daniels move on to?

I'm sorry to say, Marian, that I cannot even remember if he told us the name of his school. He probably did, but it certainly didn't register.
