Old Blues who have worked at CH

[Great Plum]

How many Old Blues have worked at CH? I know of a number that have worked / are still working...

Howard Holdsworth (1966-73) (Staff 1992 - present)
Peter Newell (1992-99) (Security on and off from 2002 - present)
Tom Law (1992-99) (Theatre Manager 2006 -)
Debbie GP (1988-95??) (CHE 2000ish for a couple of years)
Charlie Farqueson-Roberts (1989-96?) (staff 2005 -)
Mr Whitehouse (unknown) - he taught CDT until the end of my 3rd form
Richard McDonald (unknown) - he taught French and was housemaster of Mid B until 1993
Adrian Bawtree - current Organist
Mr Kirby - he lived at CH pretty much all of his life didn't he?

Who have I missed out? Can anyone else fill in the gaps?

Mr Kirby was an old blue? am i thinking of the right one-English Teacher

Jess Clenshaw (musician in residence 02-03)
and various others over the years

Wrong Mr Kirby - I'm thinking of the guy who died in the 90's(in his 90's) who had worked as a Physics(??) teacher and lived in a bungalow on the 2 mile ash road and he kept bees. He also had an obnoxious dog

i see thanks for that

Didn't Robin Case come back and teach for a while?

I don't know, but he was my parents' best man!

I think it was Howard who told me Robin taught at the school at our Maine A reunion back in May.

JDS would get very upset if you took the 'pointy bit' of the brie...

And rightly so. Very bad form.

It could be considered worrying though that I've married a man who also gets upset about the noses being taken off stiltons and loves the Lake District and has an appreciation of books like Swallows and Amazons.

Mrs Weill, 3's housemistresses in the 50s/60s, was an old 6s girl - but I don't know her maiden name - I think her Christian name was Mary.

[Richard Ruck]

Doc "cough, please" Hoskins was definitely an Old Blue.

And JDs wasn't an Old Blue - he went to Manchester Grammer - as he frequently told us!

Did he not tell you how to spell it too??

I think you should be worried!

However, I am now a GSL!

And Mrs C - I can't spell and type at the same time!

I miss scouts.

[Deb GP]

Matt - do you test your scouts on geography, have a tent call the wolery and demand tea and biscuits at 1600?

Well last week we did mapwork!

I'm persuading them that going to the Norfolk Broads is a good idea!

Why not do something scouty then?

[Deb GP]

Was a Scout Leader for a bit at Uni.

I would do it again - but we're moving house (and therefore districts) shortly. Thereafter I'll be getting my advanced wife badge level 3 which meant we had to upgrade our camping kit to Wolery proportions last Bank Holiday.

Clarence Milton Edward Seaman was headmaster and old blue.

[Mrs C.]

A female OB 2's 67-74 or thereabouts was a doctor at Horsham for a while, I believe her husband was on the staff.

.

Would that be Mike Overend?

[Great Plum]

Clarence Milton Edward Seaman was headmaster and old blue.

Thinking of headmasters, so was Mr Baker (79-85) and his successor who was at CH for 5 terms...
