Many thanks for the info lads,it's helping me build a picture of our dress through the various era's for the Goldings book.I personally think there's a film awaiting out there if Richard Attenborough could be made interested along the lines of the film "The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner" an excellent British film to mention on St Georges Day.
David Wheatley rang me two days ago with memories of his fathers first day at Goldings.He came down past the lawn and called inside the prefects hut (the left hand side of the Rec hut,later to be used for haircutting)and there was a stove fire buring away with a saucepan on the boil with eight eggs in (were they came from we didn't know??)as he surveyed around the hut,and later to return to the stove fire,there was now only two eggs in there? His first day,what other incidents were to unfold in the next 21 years? April 1'st 1945.
David is also bringing along the "Queens Cup" and other items associated with Goldings to the re-union,so on the day the one's who have the most attending from our past "House's" will become the winners of the cup(as suggested by Mike Justice)He is also enquiring what happened to Mr K.R.Wood who worked with Mr Maslin in the office,as all I can tell him that in quoting March 1967 Goldonian "Mr K.R.Wood,our School Secretary has now joined the staff of Barclays Bank as releif cashier.David has also suggested a "Questions and Answers" on the day of the re-union,which he is prepared to help out with,what does everybody think,myself I think it's a good idea to refresh our memories.Dave
