I was gobsmacked when I saw my old rugby coach featured on Question of Sport's "What happened next". I don't recall the incident they showed, but it could well have been the cards by the sounds of it!

Is 'the Chelsea' still operating as the unofficial smoking lounge? It was feckin hilarious when I was there. They chopped it back to matchsticks, and everyone carried on congregating there anyway. In prep break there'd be 30 smokers trying to hide behind one spindly twig. Gripper used to visit to ta...

Bullying & Abuse - Take II

Back due to popular demand... :D I'm curious to know perceptions of bullying and abuse at CH from different eras. During my time at Housey the culture changed considerably. When I joined in the 2nd form, I was ascribed a pupil on the year above as my 'nursemaid' - an older pupil who was supposed to ...

The Bacchae

If anyone has any photos of this production I'd be very grateful for (electronic) copies. I left CH with no photos at all of stuff I did at the Theatre.

Anything of DNP's 'bosnia style' (!) production of Romeo & Juliet (the one that toured Germany) would be great too.

Ta.

How about the loyalty to give back the benefits you received?? I received many benefits from CH, I wouldn't deny that. But if we're going to be even-handed about this, then CH would also need to recognise the large amount of pain and sufferring that it allowed to be caused to not just me, but a gre...

I feel loyalty towards myself, my life, my loved ones, my faith, my principles and ethics...

I don't feel "loyalty" towards any institution, and fail to see why anyone would.

I heard that the military did chemical research on a group of UF in the 60's which caused incredible mutations. They sealed them into the lower level of the tube, where their hideous grandchildren remain today. Occasionally one of them escapes, but they're usually rounded up quickly, subjected to mi...
