I went in 71 and left in 77 - I'm sure it wasn't all bad - after all I learnt all the songs from Joseph off by heart in the music lessons!
I would never have read Catch-22 if it wasn't for Terry Griffiths. Certainly I owe a lot to David Sanderson. Sorry to hear that Mr Barber died, if he was the woodwork teacher then he was our form teacher for a couple of years.
I remember Mr Shipley's detentions (every French lesson), and his useless career advice, but how could he know any better?
