I'm somewhat at fault for taking a photo of the photo under a bright light, but the quality of the original is shocking. In fact, all my old CH photos are pretty bad. Apparently house photos weren't a priority in the 1990s. I'm not sure what was...michael scuffil wrote: ↑Wed Sep 19, 2018 6:42 pm Whoever took that picture ought to be shot. The lighting is dreadful.

can you post that pic again pls...?graham wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 9:08 pm Here's Thornton A, 1997. Mr O'Boyle, housemaster, is third row fifth from left. House captain Nick Wolstenholme in the center and Mr Phelps / Philps (?) the other side. I can't remember how to spell his last name but do remember he taught maths and could juggle. I forget the name of the CDT teacher next to Matron (I forget Matron's name too), but he was a laugh and Mr Marlow is next to him. I'm on the far left. Oh, the memories. I don't know why were on the quad for the picture, rather than outside the house though.
Matron Moody for Thornton at the time? CDT teacher i think was Mr Williams(??). Was a rugby coach as wellgraham wrote: ↑Thu Sep 13, 2018 9:08 pm Here's Thornton A, 1997.

Mr Williams sounds right. Andy Williams? Not matron Moody though. She retired a year or two before (94 or 95 I think).Pe.A wrote: ↑Mon Apr 08, 2019 11:43 amMatron Moody for Thornton at the time?
