Re: Revd Patrick Duncan-still painting? Contact details? [FOUND]

I fear - from a previous poster mentioning Edinburgh as his residence - that this may possibly be Patrick#s death notice? https://edinburgh.anglican.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/09-02-17.pdf I have fond memories of him presiding at my wedding in 1988 and his wonderful painting of York Minster is a...

Re: Charles Hazlewood

rockfreak, I'm pretty ecclectic in my taste in music. I've always liked ABBA, rock, classical music and reggae (a relative basically created the reggae scene in Western Australia). It feels strange in the 21st century to be insuted so absolutely about ABBA. Almost like you are stuck in the 1980s. Fo...

Re: Charles Hazlewood

Algorithms - dontcha just luv em - Seem to have corrupted my link to Charles Hazlewood on Abba - to just Abba. Sorry about that. It was a virtuoso performance by Charles. You will just have to take my word for it. Sorry also, for the adverts. Courtesy of CH Unofficial Forum? Pete Townsend thought SO...

Re: Charles Hazlewood

I love everything Charles Hazlewood is involved with. Here he is explaining what was behind the success of the ABBA breakthrough song, SOS. (They had a long period after Waterloo when no-one wanted to know them.) It's one of my top 5 ABBA songs even though it only made no. 6 in the UK charts. https:...

Re: CHOBA Carol Concert

Apart from being a Housemaster and being in charge of the UCAS applications for a whole year, the hardest CH job I had was being i/c Chapel Seating. The toughest challenge was the Carol Service. Health and Safety eventually decided that you could only issue enough tickets as there were seats. Before...

Fair point.
Those who teach in the private sector can justifiably be labelled as frauds.

Re: Politics

No chance of a solution on the Irish border.
Ireland remembers Cromwell, 1798, 1845/6, 1921
Ireland will not forget and the boot is on the other foot for the first time in history.
GB should get used to being a second tier nation.

Re: Politics

the break-up of the UK. That is what Brussels is demanding and UK trying to control Utter nonsense. It is the UK that is self-harming. It is the UNIONIST Party that is bringing on this disaster. It is unbearable for me as someone that loves Scotland dearly. It was where I learned to play golf and t...

Re: Politics

I can't quite believe that the Conservative and UNIONIST Party has set in train the break-up of the UK. Cameron & May may go down together as the worst ever PMs. Brexit is a narrowly English obsession.

Re: CH fundraising - a bit of a rant

The usual approach - eg by Westminster, Dulwich, Wellington et al is to operate schools overseas to subsidise UK operations.

Re: HUSBAND APPEAL ??

Do we know if the family member who tried to get the complainant to drop the case is going to be prosecuted for witness intimidation and obstruction of justice? Very serious offences. It would surely depend on the extent of the "intimidation". Probably raising the issue on an internet for...
