"Fraser Cromey- Hawke Maine A and Peele B 65-72"

Hairy drummer of CH Band 1971.

Rolled a cigarette (Churchmans A1) with ONE hand on St Matthews Day in the city. Very impressive.

If you go to:

and type "Christ's Hospital" into the search box you will find 21 pics


Just had a look at these too - couple of things struck me - the photo of the group of boys in 1873 could be timeless (if you took away the "teachers" - they look more like beadles) and the 1850 photo of the boys dormitory - they're the same beds as were still in use over 120 years later!

"He had plenty of practice, allegedly "

I have heard (on good authority ) that he lives in the west country with a lovely wife and two grown up daughters.

I'm pleased to hear all is well with him.

We went into different Senior Houses so lost contact but were friendly in Maine A, our Junior House. He wasn't at our Maine A reunion earlier this year so I wondered how he was.
