I'd certainly say that they are a dramatic improvement in the living conditions for the Grecians.....wish I could go back!

I'd agree with that - doesn't compare to what we had and I know the boys were worse off than us as our houses had just been done up for 1985.

I haven't heard a thing about her since we left - shame as I liked her.

WTF is going on? Can someone please explain?

Think it's just in the summer term when the following years monitors are appointed - there's a few weeks where there are the Grecian monitors and the newly chosen ones. May have changed since my day though!

With CH having all those empty roads to learn on, driving lessons sound like a good idea. I remember going "thirds" with Chris Sims & Dom Maguire and having our first driving lessons (3) at CH - the first thing I remember having to do was drive past the dining hall under the 2 arches ...
