Your memory serves you very well Margaret, the only ones I remember on that list Are Mr Allen and Mr Gale, although others were Milton Suthers, (maths), and Norman Booth,(woodwork), thinking back they must both have been good teachers, I can still bring to mind what they managed to instill into the brain of a miners son who was not really interested. Maybe if I had taken a little more notice I could have had an Ology.
