Maidstone I remember it well: Mike Matthews re John Shears posting: Hi John, somewhat pleasing to know someone remembers my name, Mick/Mike whatever. I vaguely remember your name but sorry to say i cant put a face to it. Forgotten about those cross country runs around vinters, think Harry O sometimes made us run around the park then out and along the road. Names I recall as well as those you mention are: Peter Norris, who I believe is a priest on the Falkland Isles (think i got that from somewhere on this site)googled it and it seems he is still there. Noel Sturgeon (lived at Aylesford from memory), Eric Tynam or Tynham, Raymond Russell, Peter Thompson, Patrick Carabine, the Pirrozio brothers Attilio (owns a few restuarants on the channel isles) and Antonio who I think has passed on in recent years. Paul Martin, Ann Walsh, Shirley Wilmshurst. My dad was also a paint sprayer for Rootes at the works by the river (think its still a car dealers) from the fifties until he retired in the late seventies. Before that he worked for Tilling Stevens. Passed on now sadly. I retired 5 years ago after running/working in small manufacturing industries, mainly in Bedfordshire. Living (and enjoying it) with my lovely lady Jenny in West Cornwall, 17 miles from Lands End. Apart from being a b....y wet part of the world I find it fantastic. Great Site this thanks to PC. All the best Mick
