Guestbook - May 2006
The Guestbook is not just about finding old friends, you might also
want to post questions about the local area or make comment on a visit
to Coventry and Warwickshire. If you would like to post a message to the
guestbook please send them to : editor@cwn.org.uk
NOTE : For any enquiries where someone
is trying to find someone else we feel it better if you do know the people being sought to ask them first before passing on any information about them - remember they may not want to be found!

THE CAMPBELL TWINS |
|
I lost all contact with school friends from my time at Stoke Heath (the
Headmistress then was Mrs Moore).
Does anyone remember us - the identical Campbell twins (John & Fred)? We
lived at 46 Swan Lane. After the 11+ exam John went to Frederick
Birds and I to John Gulson. (John now lives in New Zealand).
I have also lost all contact with school friends from my time at John
Gulson School. I lost contact with many/most of them except those that
then went on to play rugger in the CCOB RFC. (I was a founder and
playing member from 1955 – 1962).
In 1954 we at John Gulson were moved to the newly opened Caludon Castle
Comprehensive School. We had really good times at both John Gulson and
Caludon Castle. At Caludon my housemaster was Mr Turner and some
teachers that come to mind are Wal Evans, Jack Knight and Mr Hodson.
After Caludon I became an apprentice with Dunlop Rim & Wheel Co Ltd
where I was joined by two school friends from Caludon : Brian Bedford
(still in contact with) and Walter Gregory. One school friend from 1950
- 1955 that I have managed to trace is Maurice Bambrick.
I am interested to come into contact with any school friend (that I am
not now in contact with) from 1950 - 1955. I visit the UK frequently and
will attend the reunion celebration of the CCOB RFC on 16 September 2006
in Coventry.
I left Coventry and the UK in 1962.
I now live in Kristianstad in Sweden. |
