It was a bit lonely first day at AGS. Many memorable teachers - Ben Johnson/Crick/Portno etc. etc. Most of my mates went to Rhyddings, 1 or 2 to the Tech.
Knew Catherine very well, I used to go around with her and Jean Helm.Both lived on Sunny Bank Drive and Jean and I played tennis for Immanuel)
I went to Padock but Catherine was never sent there, can't remember where she went.
I also remember Jocelyn Griffiths, so could I possibly know you?
