School Photos

admin · School Photos

Please place all your school photographs in this section of the forum. Hopefully we can build up quite an archive of old school photographs.

Place your photograph here and then discuss it, I will then create a gallery which will contain just photographs.

I used to work with Mark Angel at calne screen print from Jan '95 to sept '96. If I remember correctly, he is married with at least one kid now. We used to call him 'Hammer'. Something to do with a haircut that made him look like a hammer head shark apparently. Last I heard, he was working on portemarsh for another printing place. I think called 'ICL' or something like that.

I went to the first Guthrie school then Dunstans when it opened then onto the Green before Bentley. I must have missed Daves photo by a year. Would love to see 1969 if anyone has it. Remember a strange mix of hippies,skinheads and some very nerdy types. Had many detentions with strange essays dreamed up by the prefects. Never had another after my father threatened to throw the headmaster out of his office window I'd had a detention for dropping a pen. Remember we set up a rock band called Dirty Dog must have been the start of my love of live music.
Made a boat with Abdul Mitchel to sail to Chippenham can't remember ever getting there. Had great all night parties up on the White Horse remember singing Here comes the Sun at dawn. Remember a very loving french student at school who had to leave because she was very loving with several of us pupils. Great days!!
