Yes i can confirm with Andy S that it was Jeremy Shields , I was in the same house as him in Lamb B and he certainly kept himself to himself, I never knew why he limped and I feel he may have stayed on an extra year because of the injury may have set him back a year.

After your time, John. Sarah Spurrier was born about 1961, I think. You weren't that much of a cradle snatcher?!J.R. wrote:Before my time, I'm afraid. Wasn't H.S. Housemaster of Middleton A or B ?
HS was housemaster of MidB, and taught history lazily. His classroom (uniquely) had a large wall-clock, and all-wooden desks. He was also Capt. Spurrier, company commander of C Coy (where the rookies were).
