My memories are a bit thin after 56 years, but I remember the cold shower initiation for new boys & some “intimidation” from seniors, the mini-snooker table in the Senior Common Room, fagging & the bell, being beaten by David Nelson-Smith with the cane, a military swagger stick, which broke across my backside. Shooting in the armoury when I should have been on a cross country run (the method was to be at the back of the runners & passing the armoury to turn sharp right to disappear – worked every time!). Especially I recall with pleasure learning, in particular German with T.R. Davidson, History with Bill Stewart, chaotic Latin with Major (CCF) Page & of course many others. I recall enjoying House rugby at the New Ground but not being too keen on the athletic Standards in the autumn term. When in the C.C.F I won a flying scholarship & the R.A.F. taught me to fly at Shoreham. I subsequently failed to make a flying career in the R.A.F. but carried on flying, latterly my own aircraft & ceased recently in 2003.
