ALZYMER Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I passed my 11+ to go to Owler Lane Intermediate school back in 1960, and in 1963 we joined up with Hinde House Secondary school to make, I think, the first Comprehensive school in Sheffield. Does anyone on the forum remember going there at that time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozgirl Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I didn't go towler lane but went to hinde House untill 1966 so I was propably there at the same time as you only I didn't pass the eleven plus so you were probably in a higher class than me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALZYMER Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 It's been great to read the names from the past on this site. Tony Oxley, Ian Pringle, the famous Greatbatch, Steve Radford. Whatever happened to Geoff Worth? I thought he'd make it as a pro footballer.Does the name Roger Sidwell ring a bell, his folks had a pub in Pitsmoor, also Eddie Lister, lived on the Manor estate along with me. By the way, my name is Brian Moss. Another name I remember is Fred Guite, but sadly, I think he topped himself a few years ago, but I'd love to be wrong.

Alzymer I remember some of those names, sadly you are right Fred did take his own life. I remember Roger I lived a few yards from him at one time and I think Geoff Worth did become a professional footballer he was certainly a professional coach. I remember you but I think you were one year below me. Siren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALZYMER Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 That's right Iain, I was a banqueting porter for a few weeks(very few, as I let the end of a piano down on the assistant managers foot) and to be honest mate, I can't really remember where in the hotel you worked , but I seem to picture you in a chef's out fit , am I right?
