This is a few of my personal old snaps I took with my trusty AGFA Instamatic that my Mum bought me for my 'Bird-Watching' - always got a few little remarks about which 'type' of birds I would be watching :-)

DeleteWhy not write out a specific memory - Good or Bad and send it to me via the 'Comment' pane.
I'll publish it as a post (not a comment) on the blog for other 'Old-Boys' to reminisce over - Keep Fit Alan, and call back regularly

I am Pete Barker who was 10 when I stayed at the home in summer 1967. Did Mr Geary have a wife? I ask because I think I recognise him from the photo and he and his wife(?) were very supportive and helped me "fit in" to Beenham life in the few months I was there.
