You were there with Parky? If you don't me mind me asking - are in your 80s!? I went to the primary school next door, was a wonderful old building and a shame to learn it had been knocked down.
I went there in the 90's, so not a grammar school then obviously. I did have some uncles who went when it was though, must have been in the 40's or 50's I suppose(maybe earlier). One was Graham Johnson and the other Raymond Johnson. Raymond was on the big gold honours board that was still there when I went, for his boxing...
He certainly kept your attention. A swift blow to the back of the head with a thick history text book ensured that!! Another favourite line of his; are you chewing boy? Get it out!!!
