Memories - Many different ones including:-
Seeing Mt Kenya in one direction and Mt Kilimanjaro in the other
at the same time one exceptionally clear morning
Seeing someone "tapping" the call-box near the quad to get free
phone calls.
Boxing matches where Teddy Meerloe (sp?) won, covered in blood.
Being chosen for positions in the hockey team, as my name
was at the
start of the alphabet, I became the goalie, and then had
hordes of mad
prefects flicking hockey balls at my face, whilst
pretending to be aiming
for goal.
Mike Anderson telling me that "Led Zeppelin" was druggie music.
Paul Bracy bunking off at the sailing club listening to "Cream".
David (?) Weinstein proudly playing the "Beatles White Album" .
David (?) Weinstein getting an involuntary haircut.
The Durrell brothers and the strange case of Mr Dollimore's
missing
dachshund dog.
Dave Isherwood telling Alfredo Pellini, Mike "Shelli-shelli"
and myself
that the world would end in 1976 (he was a Jehova's Witness).
Rugby training supervised by "Jack" Frost (Nich pre), where
we were
told to line up a breast; when I told him I didn't have any,
I had to run round
the pitch several times.
Standing on the top diving board, and trying to psyche
myself up into
diving in
On a rugby trip to RVA, cadging fags off a passing muzungu
car that
was overtaking us at 40mph
The matron in the San saying "come back tomorrow" even if you were
at deaths door
The food, even now strawberry jam makes me feel sick!
and countless others.........
