How dare you sir call it "Hemmy", it's Hamilton Acadamy for the sons of gentlemen, if you look there's a topic already on the go somewhere.

My old man went there in the 30's and it was Hemmy then. His maths teacher was a Dickie Bolton, who then became my maths teacher at the BI. He wouldn't transfer to Tolle and went and taught maths at a girls school. Was told which one but can't remember. He was a very nice bloke and a good teacher.
