Michelle Jennings, I shared a dorm with Sue and have many embarrassing photos of her and others such as Lindy Kirby, Carol Hughes & Jacqui Foskett (who I'm sure she will remember) with an assortment of boyfriends of the time.

Hmmm...interesting reading!! Okay...my first post and I can't even fill it in properly...as I just can't remember the details! I know I started off in Caernarvon - but was apparently just far too well behaved to stay there and was shifted to the top floor of the block with Ms Barnett in charge??? Heeelp! Can't remember exactly when I was there either - think it was between '76 & '79. Hennyways - does any remember Debbie Robinson? If you're around, I'd love to hear what you've been doing all this time

I am Martin Pulford and was a student at Windsor Boy's School in Hillsborough between 1966 & 1969. Thoroughlly enjoyed my time whist at WBS and made many friends who I am afraid to say have never met since. This website has brought back some excellent memories especially the photographs. My father was in the RAF and was based in RAF Laarbruch. In response to another old Hillsborough student, Malcolm Malone, who has left a message on this site, long time no see. Hope this is the Malcolm I remember.

Occasionally I browse the visitor's book and noticed a posting from Terry Leahy. Wondered what your are doing with yourself these days Terry and if you have any contact with the other Caernarvon Heavies. I did go to 2 or 3 reunions with Geezer, Sue Waite (Mooney) and a few others but have sort of let things drop a bit. I also occasionally see Angie Dunmall's name appear who I remember well.

The bromide in the cocoa ,itnr and exeats are all that remain in the back of my 40 something brain along with the names of various windsor reprebates all of which are probaly in prison and whom certainly wouldnt be able to operate a computer. The reunion is it open to none members? as im sure my sister juile would like to come.

Andy Tibbs (H76-80)

Andy, The reunion is open to anyone who went to Windsor Schools and also their non-windsorite guests so if your sister wants to go thats ok

Are John and Debbie still living in Basingstoke? it's only a 40 minute drive from me hear in Aldershot, maybe next time you are over from Germany they can let me know and we can get together for a coffee and a catch-up. Whats with the I'm feeling old and tired bit? some of us are grannies, now that really makes you feel old and tired. I have asked Bill Craswell to pass on my email address and Mob phone number, please get in touch, I can't work now due to a back injury so I get pretty feb up and its great to get in touch with old friends. I'm in touch with Christine Lancaster (Lofty although we're not allowed to call her that now) quite often, we chat on the phone for ages. I've also joined Friends Reunited and been in touch with Dave Edmondson. I'm sorry you won't be at the reunion but I hope you will get in touch once Bill has sent you my email and phone number. To everyone else, I hope to see you in Blackpool at the end of June. Take Care.

For those of you who know my sister Christine who was in Balmoral house well she is a proud grandmother as of 17th May 2007.She has a Grandson by her daughter Debbie and his name is Finn Lewis CAVERS.

Ralph Bennett (M62-68)

23 May 2007

Danny..! I would like to thank you for sharing that memory with the world wide web..? Thankfully I cannot remember the trip to fantasia Land, Im hoping you meant the photograph and NOT the outfit to the reunion ha! ha!A certain person whose name begins with "S" if your reading this please pick yourself back up from the floor and stop laughing. On a different note not quite sure which brother you are refering to..? I have met Ian a few times in the last couple of years in a work capacity up in Yorkshire.Danny look forward to seeing you.
All the very best

Rod Whitworth (B80-82)

24 May 2007

Thank you, Ralph, for sharing your sister Chris' good news with us! Well done! I became a grandmother about 18 months ago (my other children are being sadly negligent, only one grandchild so far) - I was lucky enough to be there at the birth, straight after my Open University exam in Evolution - the main test of "survival of the fittest" is that your offspring reproduce, so it was a particularly apt event! I am sure Chris will enjoy being a grandmother, although it's particularly difficult to imagine that in my mind's eye, where she is still a teenager!

WOW!! What a fantastic read. It made me get out my old photo album!!So many names I remember. Back then I was Julie Mitchell, I was in Hillsborough house firstly as a border. Then my Dad got posted from Osnabruck (Kline Moscow), to Korbecke near Soest so I became a day pupil in my 5th year. It was the best time especially the 3rd year (more kids in the dorm) I shared with Sue Hammond, Fiona Hutchinson, Sharon Donkin, Amanda Hunter and Marty Samuel, god we got into soooo much trouble! Have been in contact with Sue and also Oli Jones, George Wood, Andrea Barnes and Odette Smee. Have a great time in Blackpool xxxxx Best wishes to all xxxxxx Jules

Julie Mitchell (H80-83)

28 May 2007

FAO Tom McCarthy, I spoke with "The Big Yin" (Mike Price) yesterday so tell Frank we will see him in Blackpool along with your good self. Can it be true? The outstanding winners of Caernarvon "Boggy Dorm" 1976/77 will once again be reunited! Shuggy are you going? Come on Caernarvon lads, yes even you Cormac Hawkins! Aufstehen! Aufstehen!

Message for Mark Holder - Noddy, just seen your message, 5th May, unfortunately my brother John can't make it this time he is away sailing. I'll fill you in on what who has been up to at the reunion, look forward to meeting you again.

Message for Paddy Docherty - Paddy, I remember you, blimey, I have often wondered when my old dorm mates would surface and blow me you, Paul and Kingy all show up at the same time. Red hair & freckles as I recall, pity you can't make the reunion hope you are well and hope to see you at future school events. All the very best
