Re: Little Plum...
Oh boy!!! Heee heee heee!! Get out and about whilst you can - both of you!! Life is NEVER the same after the patter of little feet - or to be more honest the lungs at top volume at 3am...... Congratualtions to you both - I have finally got mine off my hands! Both are now out and about (Well daughter...

Re: Spam Knows My Innermost Anxieties
Munch, you need to understand the reason behind the fact the spam mail knows how to target you! Part of it comes from the use of your store cards - Tesco, Sainsbugs etc. Another lot comes from your credit cards (I have a bad credit rating so am not allowed one, although I get about 15 a day offering...

Re: Settles
Wow - you boys really did get the good stuff!!! LOL ! We had nothing remotely like a settle - we had a little wooden tuck area/box in 5's sited on the wall near the cloakroom, where we could put our jam, sweets, and another place in the back of the house (dining room, next to the 5th form study) whe...

Re: Hertford photos
ok I am back in the frame after being out for a long time - sadly due to one persons words. No need to name and shame. I have some photo's of us from April this year - sadly not that many! For some reason I seemed too often to try to get a picture, only to find out it was all blurred (the old MS is ...

Re: weekends
On two Sunday mornings every term, we got an in-house breakfast, which was a bit of a treat and consisted of pains-au-chocolats and proper coffee and hot chocolate (not just the stuff that came out of the machines in the dining hall) and some eggs, beans, bacon etc. It was always a really nice trea...

Re: a suggestion or two
Thanks David - but I am a vegetarian, I eat on the cheap already - I do buy cat food as I can't tell them they can't have their meals because I have spent all my money! Maybe now DD has gone back to Uni, there will be a less of a drain on my money in the foood and grocery department. Other than goin...

Re: First Day.....Last Day
First day - no idea, completely blank except still worried that I'd have to cut my very long hair (I'd read too many girls comics). It stayed long, but since I'd never really done my own hair before, I remember plaiting it took forever and I had to learn some new hairstyles. Last day 4th July , ver...

Re: weekends
wow - how the system changed - prep on Saturday to lessons on Satruday to prep on Saturday!! I guess with each new Headmistress a few changes were made - After DRW we had Miss Tucker she left a couple of years after me, and Miss Morrison became head - so I can see that each had their own ideas of ho...

Re: Favourite teacher
Mrs Dawson - Art Mistress - she had a daughter (Fiona Dawson) who was in 2's but was a DAY GIRL!! The only one ever as far as I know at Hertford! I didn't know that! The only girl I remember having a parent work at CH (Hertford) was the daughter of Nurse Chugg - she wasn't a day girl though and was...

Re: First Day.....Last Day
I wish now that I had gone to the Auction - pity I was still in a bit of a fury over CH - if I could have anything now....hmm Cherry Red; Harris Tweed; I think that probably sums it up!!! Oh dear!! I do remember that if you were muscular or had "breasts" then the Sunday straight blue "...

Re: First Day.....Last Day
I guess I am glad that we had normal (if you can call multi coloured ties representing each house! normal) ties, at least those I was able to do without pins!! The entire outfit of the boys I feel must be dreadfully heavy after wearing "civvies" all I remember for Housey with DS was that h...

Re: a suggestion or two
OK - I am ready for the men in white suits now....

I used to teach Word (the Microso...
