Re: Corporal Punishment by CH Teaching staff
I don't think Peter Austin Jones ever beat anyone. I would be surprised if Michael Cherniavsky did, though as a senior housemaster, he would have been sorely tempted. Was anyone here ever beaten by Chern? Or Tim Law? Not sure which Mr Jones that was; if it was the senior housemaster of Prep A he ce...

Re: School Prospectus
... but Old Blues have the happy knack of knowing the right people. I think like bread upon the waters it may return a thousandfold. As all advertisers know it is difficult to get the target right. The knack is getting enough into the right place and this means casting the net widely. (I think I hav...

Re: Happy Ajarn Dave by the Sea !!!
When one is ancient, confusion is a happy and thankfully immaterial way of life. JR is beginning to enjoy it like the rest of us - but he got my birthday in March spot on even if I failed to notice this until May.

Re: School Prospectus
I can see why the prospectus is of concern to many of us Old Blues who are totally committed to the founding principles of Housey. Maybe it is a marketing exercise directed at the privileged and wealthy. But let us pause and reflect for a moment; if attracting a higher proportion of full fee-payers ...

Re: Old Beds, Settles Etc
But I have craved one for years .........
.... trouble is I cannot get out of the CH habit of chucking clothes into the settle as I undress. Without a settle to embrace them, they just end on the floor and Judith complains. Please, please help me to find a settle and save my marriage.

No - I was aware! She was a sweetie. We spoke on the phone sometimes and met once at CH. It was good to be reminded of her as I stumbled over this the other day.
