Hinde house school days early 60s


Recommended Posts

Hi Siren

No it wasn't Mr Hook. He never took our class for English. I do remember him doing a sketch at a Christmas concert one year called "The man who smelled a smell" He had us all in stitches.

It suddenly came to me last night. My english teacher's name was Ashton.

 

Yes I remember him,often started his lessons with the phrase, "and now I want your complete and undivided attention". I bumped into him in the late eighties early nineties, I think, he looked exactly the same.

Mr Guest (I think he left under a cloud) or Mr Osbaldeston?

 

Mr Osbaldiston taught science if I remember rightly - will have to get my report book out of the loft to be certain (I was at H/H 64-69)

Heard recently on Friends Reunited that George Ridgeway had died.
