    Hi Steve, I haven’t seen a post from anyone who’s name I remember/recognise, from the time I was at Five Ways. I don’t check this site very often, as a result.

    Hi David, I was at GD from 1957 to 1962. I’ve only just found this forum so I thought I’d post a comment to see who else is still around.
