Simon has recognised a few faces in the picture from last Monday, and I've managed to scan the pages from the 1964 magazine!
By then, I was miles away, (and had actually given up cricket, as golf and tennis seemed a better option). I'm afraid someone will have to work out who is who from the names mentioned in GB's resume of the 1963 season!
(If you click on each of the pages, they'll embigger on your screen)!
I’ve set up this website so that if anyone else is interested, there’s a forum for like-minded Hydneye House Old Boys who can read any notes which appear and comment if they like. HHS OBs - and others of course, can always email me on 2ndmktx@gmail.com, and send notes, pictures etc. in any form. I'll put them up in the posts, and attribute them as well! This is really our own place! All the magazines are here now. To see any of them, just click the arrows on the Blog Archive list!

Cricket...
It wasn't really a big pavilion, more like a shed where you kept your kit while toiling under the blue skies...
The other pavilion was a better building, and your boots kept nice and wet for when you needed to put them on again for the next game on Far Field South, or Near Field North (The First's pitch...)
I can easily recall the rugby pitch though, (in front of the picture) and Taylor and I were wing forwards in a team which played against schools like Westerleigh, Claremont and Hurst Court!
