I used to live on his street and picked up his GCE cetificate when he left. I was a first year at the time and (ahem) in the choir at speech day. The opening speech that day day was delivered by an upper 6th lad called 'Barras' I think. He stood up and gave it in Latin !!! Foookin Latin... now there may have been some the masters who understood this but the assembled 'grunts' like me and the parents hadn't got a feckin clue what he was on about.</p>

Yes Barras was the head boy, (wnkr) . The last time I sang the school song was in a hotel in Rhodes town. This guy came into the bar, with a semi tarn accent. We got chatting ,then to the amazement or annoyance of the other guests we broke into full song bloody good it was. We both remembered it is "cuppa" as in cuppa tea, funny how we had that drilled int us
