That would be nice How old are the grand children Nine range from 24 down to 8 Are you still working ? I finished 2 years ago just before we moved no pension though till this year
 
21, 15, 12 and 3 year old. I’m still working but thinking of calling it a day next year, think 50years of working is enough for anyone and it will be nice to have more time to do what you want to do.

I went to this school in the early fifties, left in 1955. Remember Mr Wildboar the woodwork teacher, Mr Schofield metalwork teacher, Mr Brittain who had a nasty twitch caused during the war. In those days we given a good training in crafts which proved to be very useful in my working life.
 
Thats interesting I didn't start there till 1966 Strange there was a Mr Reeves who was the boys PE teacher nasty bit of work tbh but when I went to parents evening for my eldest daughter who should I see but Mr Reeves still teaching PE its was some 30 years ago
