If you mean the little piggy teacher with the michelin man rolls who sweated buckets then yep I remember her well. I ALWAYS went for a fag after one of her lessons, couldn't stand her and I failed maths o'level. It would be her fault if I went bankrupt...
Hm don't remember him sorry I was taught that by a french woman and a bloody brilliant teacher. Older woman maybe late 40's with short dark hair and glasses. I passed o level french at a grade B with her - which was higher than my o level grade c in english haha
Ah, poor old WHS - I was there from '63 to '70. Went to a couple of open days in recent years, before it was reduced to rubble, and took pictures to remember it by. Leaky, draughty, impractical, and virtually impossible to convert to disabled access - would have cost a fortune to keep it usable - but I have some fond memories of the place nevertheless; even of the holly trees down past the side of the netball courts! In my day, the older girls might just push a new girl into their prickly embrace as a kind of welcome! They didn't try it with me...
Even though me and my friends spent 5 years at Wallasey High we have now become senile and can't remember the house names. We recall St Catherine's,(blue) St Ursula's,(green) St Margaret's(purple) but although someone thought the fourth one was St Barbara's(red?)it doesn't sound right. Is there anyone out there with a better memory or are we actually right?
Yes, the fourth house was Barbara's. You're one up on me, remembering the colours though - I only remembered Margaret being purple, because that was my house and I had to paint a poster for it one year.
