there was one in the Hertford Dining Hall, where six hapless girls got to dine with DR on a Tuesday. That's the dais I was talking about - I remember this punishment happening fairly regularly at Hertford. I don't remember it at Horsham though, but as BaB were seated at the other end of the dining ...

When did Mrs Dawson leave then? She's the only one I remember in the art school from the late 80's as she moved with us from Hertford.

Miss Hann was a tiny women, couldn't even have been 5', with fantastically thick, light grey hair cut in a pudding bowl shape, carried an enormous briefcase that seemed nearly as big as her!

Thank you!

How much are they being sold for?

A few faces I recognised there but also a few I can't remember who they are!

At Horsham, I used to find that the Cheese and Potato pie, sometimes serverd at tea-time was greatly improved with a great big dollop of strawberry jam on top. I still occasionally enjoy this treat today. :lol: :lol: :lol: Anyone else remember not bothering with a knife when spreading butter on toa...
