Front row (Squits) left to right:
Simon Parsons, Sam Wilcox, Nat Spring, Doug Rawlings, Ollie Richardson, Chris Knibbs, Christian Whitley, Will Shalcross, Alex Selby-Boothroyd, Martin Pyne, Alex Wynn-Green, Stuart Cudlipp (me!), Danny Fisher, Charlie Lemon, Henry Young and Ben Todd.

I don't remember enough of the other names to add them all, and don't want to upset the people I leave out. But if anyone wants to send me a list then I'm happy to add to this.

The masters are Mr O'Boyle, Matron, Mr Sutcliffe & Miss Lindsey

Oh - and if anyone is wondering what a girlie is doing in the middle of the Mid B house photo of 1984/85 then that's Sidonia Porteus. Her dad was the chaplain at the time, and we were lucky enough to have her in our house (every 11 year olds dream come true)

Cheers Adam (I'm guessing it's you?)

That's bad - 50 people named and shamed, and one poor sod who neither of us can remember his name. I have an excuse as it was my second form and he was three years above me - come on, someone fill in the blank......who is the guy next to Dom on the second row?????

[adlop]

yep it's me.

How you doing, suppose I haven't seen you for ooooh 15 years? I was down sarf last week, you still there?

As for the missing person, I think it was Robert Griffiths...so job done....

Taffy Griffiths - now I remember!
I'm doing good thanks. It's now 16 years! Still in Rustington, just round corner to your old house.
How's life in Geordieland - you still working in Theatre?

[adlop]

Kind of still working in the arts in general. I run an organisation up here that trys to get businesses to put money into the arts and get the arts to act more business like as well as offer services to businesses.

Newcastle and the north east in general is great, can't reccomend it enough.

Well i finally find time at lunch to respond - what the ****was I doing in that photo to look such an idiot - please someone get a better pic and stick it on the photo!!

Noticed that Alex S-B and Will are using the same photo on their band website, even though the concept of CH Rock/Pop bands can no longer be discussed in public due to Channel 4 - is Titus working for RDF media me thinks?

I might get round to leaving some other messages now!

Craig

[adlop]

mmmm, it IS a bad photo for all of us but your face is...interesting.... Tudor isn't looking too good either...

but more than that CHRIST ON A BIKE, Craig, how you doing? I haven't seen you since, erm...that party in london in about 1994, seem to remember sleeping in your MG....

as for Rock School, we were so much better.....all together now IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Liberate I I Liberate I LIBERATE......

Oh what happy days, although for the life of me I can't remember the band names. Somewhere I do have a photo of us playing at a House Party with a couple of the Col A girls, Jay and (b****r, another name escapes me......was it Alice or Hannah, although I think Hannah was too young).

Anyway, I am good, taking the corporate dollar for an american Aerospace firm, still not married, but Jenny and I have been together 16 years this November , and now have 2 kids (Fitz, 3 and a half, Anya 18 months).

I noticed on my occasional forays on the web that you were up in the NE, I occasionally get up there on business but it tends to be on one of uncle stelios' orange sky buses, so I don't get much spare time.

As always, best intentions to get in touch never quite materialise, although it may be interesting to do the 20 year reunion back at CH in a few years.

I must now go and leave a note on the DNP reminiscences!

Gus Honeybun's Magic Birthday Club or House at Pooh Corner were the names.....I still have the tapes!!!

Jay Kirkwood and it was Alice.....

As for getting in touch I'll PM you my e-mail. Be good to catch up.

Amazing, I can't even recognise my brother, who is now, and I thought was then, bespectacled.
Other ex Barnes B is Dearsley, of cricketing fame.
