Contacts List

A few fellow pupils have struggled into the world of modern communications, inspired no doubt by the experience of cutting edge messaging techniques we learned at Bay House (although in those days 'messaging techniques' meant writing something on the back of an eraser and hurling it across the classroom when the teachers back was turned). The following have made contact, and if you remember them you can contact them directly by clicking on their name. They are in very roughly alphabetic order, with ladies listed under their maiden name. If you were a pupil or teacher (at any time) then please let me know your e-mail address too, so that I can add you to the list. If you fancy sending a photo too all the better. It's only a 'mailto' list, so there's no charge or obligation, and who knows which old friends would like to write to you!
