Just glad I wasn't among the boys who are now all over the news having spent time with him and his 'special friends'.... I must have missed this snippet of go...

Re: Richard Slater
Being called in at break to the chapel. Tongues guessing at what it was. That must have been particularly difficult for Dobbie and Poulton to tell us...
And that night someone put candles on the crossing and they burnt all night.
Sad times.

Toby, I don't belong to Facebook either, but I just clicked on the link on Dave's signature, and then on the photos bit and it let me in quite happily to 263 photos including some of my granddaughter Millie (daughter of Kirri). Thanks for that - some fantastic nostalgia there!! Almost brings a tear...

I am aware that Simon D'Arcy made it on to the big screen alongside Russell Crowe. Congratulations.
