Thank you for that.I have a photo when we went to Italy all the school Also 1 from 1 of the athletic days we had every year.I went on Ireland trip we caught fish then the hotel cooked them for us.I was there from around 1963 til around 1966.Yes i still have my coat n prefects badge + a fruit bowl that was like you made under the pipe smoking Mr Prankard n his beloved Rolls.great meals tripe n onions Brawn,anything that was cheap.the best job was the washing or wiping got to eat some real food even if it was the leftovers from the staff 1s.If i can find a way of getting the photo from a printer to my computer i will download my photos.If you go onto Ebay you will see postcards of the manor.Dont worry about sending too much info its always helpful in filling in the gaps we all teld to forget
Best Regards David Cummings now 63 years old

If you can send your address ill photocopy 2 of the picture what ive got 1 will come with myself n the 1s 1 can remember.You can send it back if you are on it .The other you can have for yourself as a memory.We went on 3 holidays while i was there 2 to Italy Rimini 1 to Ireland.Thinking about it i left at christman time so might have been 1965 Yes we all went to Sunday church like it of not,but i went on to be confirmed,as you it was a way of doing something else.I went back in around 1970s to show my Wife ehere i went to school,they had started the renovation into flats then.Do you know when the school closed ?

My name  David Cummings was there from around 1963 to 66.yes i remember the new gym but cannot remember the girls ?I slept in the top rooms.Id you go onto Ebay you will see postcards of the school,but before it became 1.Can you remember Idris Evans n his friend David ? came from Walsall when they ran away sole car crashed it into a bridge then ended up in a barn which they set on fire with a Combined harvester in it ?The poilice brought them back.Were you in the dormatory when we were moving the lockers around n Mrs Prankherd came up n caught us ?.the meals were cheap rubbish which since ive left have never touched again.I think i remember you.Will see if i can somehow down load the photo.I still live in the same area as i did when i was there.Married 42 years 3 sons 11 Grandchildren.Yes the good old ghost stories Father ambrose was 1 from the school when there were monks in it 1 hung himself in the food place where that stone bath was,as i remember the hook was still in the wood.It taught me a little.Though i ended up as a Prefect still got the badge n my jacket mementos must be some reason why i kept them Meon hill its where we had cross country runs where you got to the top we could have a rest n play a while then run all the way back.Best dan was when they used to have the villiage fairs,we made some money at them not all of it went to who it was supposed to go,but went on sweets
