I have loads of memories that I will keep forever and good times that I will keep forever

To my dear friend Linda Fardell. We found each other after 40 years via this website and some investigative work by Geoff Gillon. Now you are off to Crete to retire with husband Ken. I hope that you arrived safely and will have a lovely time in the place where you have spent many happy holdays. Have a glass (or Two) of firewater on me. Who knows...I may take a trip out to see you. God bless. Your pal Hilary Gold xx

I remember, I think, Pat that we shared the same birthday. I now live in Aberdeen and it was my brother John who made me aware of the website. He was in the year behind me. JnDun@aol.com

Enjoyed meeting some old school friends at St Peter's flower festival hope that more school chums will turn up next year. It was great seeing Mr Bidgood again after 45 years! Thanks to Geoff for keeping me informed.

I was at school with Jean and last saw her at her wedding. Would love to contact her again if anyone knows where she is.

Jubblies were basically orange juice in a waxed cardboard container about 4inches on a side (a tetrahedron). There were two ways to eat/drink them. Frozen - cut/tear the corner off and suck the ice like a giant ice lolly - used to take ages, and you ended up with a sticky lump of ice with all the orange juice sucked out of it, or unfrozen - cut the corner off and try to drink it without getting it all over your face...... from the dictionary of Playground slang http://www.odps.org/slangj.html: jubbly, jubblie, jubilee n. confection (usually purchased from Ice Cream van) consisting of frozen TipTop fruit drink in plastic container. f. Jubbly (trade name of orange drink in triangular wax cartons)

In his last message Clive Brightwell metions "Frozen Jubilles", sorry can't,remember them but do remember with fond memories "Fro Fruit". they were delicious. Forget broken crisps what about broken biscuits?.

I've noticed that a number of people have referred to those wonderful broken crisps. I roared at somebody's suggestion they were the crack cocaine of the '50's . But nobody has remembered Frozen Jubblies. Can't remember how much they were but in those hot summers (were they always hot ?) they were exquisite.

Had another message in from Adrian Monti (he who featured two of our pupils in Woman Magazine):

What was it like when you learnt to drive?
What do you remember about learning to drive and your driving test? If you have a tale to tell, amusing, a series of failures, the odd disaster or somehow you got through it, you may be able to help with a feature for WOMAN magazine. We are looking to chat to women drivers who have passed and have a tale to tell or passed in the 1940/50/60/70/80/90’s. For the older ones, maybe parents, grandmothers or other older relatives you might want to ask to help out. We also need you to have a photo of the car you first had after you leant (or even the one you learnt in!) to illustrate the article for which you even get PAID a small sum for helping out. So if you can help, or have any older relatives who passed and have an old family snap in an album somewhere, please get in touch. Feel free to circulate this posting!
Please contact me, Adrian Monti on 01273 777693 or at adrian@amonti.freeserve.co.uk
Thanks again
