Unfortunatly mr booth died :( Legend

Re: St Christopher's
 

I remember Mr Day teaching us maths when I was there in the seventies - god I was terrified of him. I'm racking me brains trying to think of one other teacher who used to scare the living daylights out of me, think he taught woodwork but we had him for a form teacher - used to throw his board duster at you like a weapon! Got it - Mr Riding (or 'Neddy' as we affectionately called him :) )
