Re: Curious
After Webb was given the boot, it came to my ears that he'd been dismissed for exactly what he had indeed been dismissed for: fondling boys in the dormitory at night. And yet I had left the school years before he was booted out. So how can it be that I, an Old Blue, got to hear about the real reaso...

Re: CH featured in London Financial Times newspaper last weekend
It seems surprising to me that the vast majority of the Grecians East house have no buttons The explanation is that in the CH context the meaning of the word Grecian has changed. By the time I was there in the Seventies, it meant simply "member of the Upper Sixth". The aristocrats in thei...

Re: Edward Beauclerk Maurice: Old Blue, circa 1924-30
Just dispatched it, but it doesn’t seem to be in my sent messages or in my outbox, so I’m mystified. Let me know if it hasn’t reached you and I’ll try again.
