HHS OB's lunch...



As some people know, Tim Masterman, Paddy Langdon and myself have been meeting every few months for a beer and a chat about past times at HHS!

We're meeting again at the White Hart, Catsfield, near Battle, on the 25th October, and owing to Paddy's excellent detective work, we're delighted to be joined by Andy Young, who is also a contemporary OB from the late fifties/early sixties!

Of course, anyone reading this will be very welcome to join us - it's a bit of a hike from everywhere, but there may still be some local names who are able to pop along...!

We usually meet around 12.30pm - and I always bring along the full set of the HHS Magazines, as some memories get a bit hazy...!


Update...

John Leslie is also expecting to join us, and Howard Kidd would have done but for a previous engagement!

I've been in touch with Eastbourne College, and their Archivist, Paul Jordan, has been so very helpful in bringing me up to speed on OBs who went onto Eastbourne after leaving HHS!

Sadly, we've lost David Mansell, Tommy Boltjes, A.H.Marcus and C.Thomson. Also we knew that Edwin Morton had popped off! I've yet to hear back from several others like Nick Matthews and hope that they might see this in time for the next 'reunion'!
