| November 2002. Nigel Benson R72-77 says:
"I was overjoyed to see the Channel 4 feature on Fram Coll. When I was at school it was rather dull and mostly girl-less. The most exciting anyone could think of doing was playing hockey or other games. I am delighted to see that there have been girls there for some time and that the place has really changed.
I feel the Society mag should have a Christian section seeing that it has a Masonic section, and that this should feature in the magazine.
I am existing well in Woking. See my website to see what I get up to www.bzcathlinks.org.uk." E-Mail pedbikcan@yahoo.co.uk.

| October 2002. David Lowe S66-68 says:
"I must be getting old, as I can't put faces to several of my contemporaries' names! As with my RN colleagues, it's easier to remember those "senior" to oneself. Would like to hear from/about R J (Big Sam) Slade - we shared a passion for motor-bikes and, as day-boys, both had our own (which did upset housemaster JW a few times!) - Bryn Jones (still in the RN), Nick Burt, "Greeb" Ward (friend of brother Rod) and all from that era (the Hare & Hounds and Railway Inn crowd, the 2nd XV and Haymakers cricket team). Susi and I live in Somerset, near Weston-super-Mare (M5 J21) and would be pleased to see (or hear from) anyone who's passing or works in Bristol (Filton/Abbey Wood/UWE area). More info in my Friends Reunited entry for 1968." E-Mail david@chezlowes.com.

| Channel Four "Classmates" - 9pm Wednesday 28 August. Anthony Rosen S40-48 says:
"What an extremely disappointing programme. This was through no fault of the participants but that of the producer.
Apart from the excellent scenic photography, especially the aerial shots, the programme did little justice to Framlingham - what a pity.

| September 2001. I hope that none of you have
relations or colleagues caught up in the horrific terrorist attack on New
York and Washington on 11 September 2001. One OF, Desmond Bishop R72-77, had a narrow escape:
"I work at the Amex World Financial Center, the brown building you
see still standing on the right of most TV snap-shots, close to the river.
On 11 Sept my shift was 9.30am to 5.30pm - needless to say I surfaced from
the Subway at approx. 9.05am only to hear the screams from the horror of
the second jet hitting one of the towers. I waited around for half-an-hour
too long, never believing the tower would collapse--it did a little after
10am directly toward me (at least that's the way it seemed ) and I was
running for my life. Stay well...life is good!" |

| July 2001. Ann Hogarth V85-87 wrote to say her new website: www.annhogarth.com
is up and running. I am specialising in natural science illustration, which means detailed
& physiologically accurate pictures of plants and animals, with a very high
degree of detail. The scans don't do the pictures justice, so we added a couple of
close-up sections to try and illustrate the detail - so people can understand the size of the brushstrokes - often tenths of a millimetre wide
to produce birds feathers, frogs skin etc. Please have a look for me and let me know if you have any feedback or
perhaps a commission!. My email address is now ann@annhogarth.com (the old
one ann_hogarth@hotmail.com still remains active as well). |
| July 2001. To Ruth Elwood P80-84 and Andy, a son, Henry Francis, 9lb 11oz (what a whopper!)
