By the way - the same principle of a few dodgy members costing the reputation of a whole organisation could also be applied to the Almoners.
Most Almoners undoubtedly have the best interests of CH at heart.
However, a few seem to have their own financial interests also at heart.
These ones are making the important decisions regarding the school and then having their decisions 'rubber stamped' by the rest of the Almoners.
(Previous postings have discussed this. The Ridley Society has correspondence from certain Almoners stating that they haven't been party to decisions made and, when the Clerk claims decisions have been made by the Almoners as a whole, they have actually been made by an inner cabal who, surprise surprise, may also have affiliations to a certain organisation that begins with 'f' and ends with 'reemasons'.)

Naughty words, moi?
I edited 'include' to show it could be done.

One trouser leg rolled up, left nipple exposed and an unusual handshake?

(no offence to any freemasons on the board, and for sure there will be a few. my great grandfather was a freemason so please don't cut out my tongue)
Well, I'm not a freemason. I'm expensive and I can't build a thing !
The funny hand-shake comes from the large intake of Tanglefoot. (RR will explain).
The right trouser leg is rolled up to make it easier to scratch my ankle.
The apron is to absorb the dribbles of Tanglefoot. (Again, RR will explain)
'Nuff said ?
(Makes yer wonder why a certain A. Hitler listed freemasons along with certain other members of society for free rail-trips ?)

Is there anywhere I can get hold of the MasterPlan? Is it available online?
I have read about it on here and from what I can gather it doesn't seem to be doing the school many favours but I'd like to read it and make up my own mind.

Shoz, there was a copy of 'Housey' that illustrated the masterplan a couple of years ago - I don't know if it is possible to get a copy.....

I'm positive one or two posters on this site have a copy of the masterplan, Shoz !
Wait and see what transpires.
(I have heard it referred to as, "Tales from Brother Grimm" !)

I haven't had any luck with the MasterPlan as yet, so if anyone can let me have a copy....?
As was stated in the original topic - £16.9 million was spent on refurbishing certain blocks while the rest had to make do with only £5 million. A two tier system was then created where some students would get to stay in the 'posh' blocks. What do these students have that students in the 'poor' blocks do not have? Do parents get any say as to which block their child gets or is it pot luck?
