Alan , I don't suppose you have a sister called Heather, who I guess would be 69 years old now, who also attended Hinde House school.?

 

Hi Dougie, this is Heather (not 69 til May). I remember you very well, we used to sit on the grass slope at the end of the playground at lunchtimes and have some good chats. There were several of us who always did this and I can't remember all of them, but two of them were Pat Hall and Rachel Lunney. There were a couple of your friends also but not sure exactly who they were. Ken Thompson and Keith Rhodes come to mind. Do you remember those days.

Hi Heather,i noticed on another site that you were at Hucklow rd with Margaret Gandy, you may have noticed that we bumped into each other at meadowhall, I realy enjoyed talking to her and her hubby, she lives at Chapletown now , I live in Chesterfield . I love to see old friends. My wife and I chatted toMargaret and her husband for about 1/2 a hour. I wonder if you new Brian Swallow, he was younger than us but I think he also had asister who may have been more our age.

Hi Dougie

I remember quite a few of the names including Les Walker, Peter Chapman, John Wragg, Keith Rhodes, Ken Thompson, Karen Moverley and Jean Chaloner. I'll think of some more names and see if you remember any of them. My friend Pat Hall and I used to walk over from Firth Park and hang about with Karen and other friends outside her dad's shop on Newman Rd. Didn't Jean's sister Alma marry Brendan Ingle. I met Glen Broad today in Morrisons and he's not changed, I still knew him. Do you remember him, he went to Wincobank school. I live in Norton and was in Chesterfield yesterday , it's a small world

Hi Dougie, Yes I saw Glen at Morrisons Meadowhead. I live just down form the church. I remember Carol Slack but not her brother. I think the Godwin brothers lived next door to Pat Hall on Vickers Road, and she was dark haired and tallish not small and blonde. Some more names for you, Doreen White, Joan Kipling, Rachael Lunney, Angela Adams, Graham Carr, Peter Farrell, David turner, Peter Nile. Peter Clarkson and George Pridmore. I'll keep thinking. A few teachers, Mr Lord who taught religious education, very apt name. We used to call him creeping Jesus. Mrs Turner who taught History and used to sit on the desk showing her legs to the boys. I think that Mr Ridgeway sadly died recently. Do you remember Mr Hook? he took us for English and I thought he was wonderful, he taught us more about life than anyone and was very irreverent, and upset many a parent. He took us to Stratford to the Shakespeare theatre once and called us all prostitutes for wearing nail polish. The school was besieged by angry mothers and he had to apologise to us all.There was another art teacher, a really ferocious lady but have forgotten her name. She live a few doors away from me and I was terrified of doing wrong if she was around. Think she was the only car owner around so we got out of her way when she took to the road. Memories.
