lovelace   23 #80 Posted June 18, 2019 Hi    DAVID FRANCE,                                                         Keith Spooner ( Spud)  would like to contact you about the school reunion.     He's at his caravan at the moment & the Wi-Fi's not good.        He says it's best to send him a text as he always gets them.        I tried to send you a private message with his phone number & email address but that didn't work.          I don't mind putting my email address on here, so could you please let me know how to send them to you.             Cheers.            Lovelace. DAVID FRANCE.        Sorry, forgot to add the email ;      lknight65@googlemail.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Thorpy   10 #83 Posted June 26, 2019 Went to the reunion today. Many thanks to David France! It was good to see some of the old faces again from my year, Roger walker, Keith Spooner, and of course David France. From the year after, there were Ian Brelsford, Frank Turner, Malcolm Gladwin, Ralph Holmes and Dave Storf(sp?). There were lots more from other years, David is I think going to post a list of everyone. Some of the girls attended, including Sandra Cook and Valerie Shaw.  An ex-pupil who used to live at the top of our road was also there, Tony Foulds who has been in the the news lately regarding his dedication to the Mi Amigo memorial in Endcliffe park over all these years. It was a pleasure to meet him again after all this time. We also had a very tasty "school dinner" in the cafe, good value for money.  Once again, thanks to David for organizing things.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
DavidFrance   19 #84 Posted June 26, 2019 Thorpy, thank you very much for your kind comments. I'm entertaining visitors from Oz tonight but I will post the full "report" on the reunion as soon as possible, together with confirmation of the special Christmas Reunion we discussed today. But, yes, it was a great day and fantastic to see all those people from Sharrow's past.   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
