I went to Hertford on a double scholarship - one from West Sussex, the other from my 11+, I went to London, talked, waited, saw some people, can't really remember much of that event. I ended up chosing Hertford purely because it was as far away from home as I could possibly get - I had offers from a schools in Reading, Bristol et al, but the final point of acceptance was up to me!!
An unhappy home life made CH a get away, but even then there were all sorts to contend with. But at the end of the day I have had a damn good education, my son was at CH for 3 years, and I have lost the plot of what I was going to say! (another senior moment!)
I have to say honestly that if I had had to chose between CH or Home I would have probably said CH, as by then I had worked out the rules and had calmed down...
I have here my leather bound bible, July 1980 - owow....
As for the magazines I still don't get any - unless of course it is my house elves at the post again.... they are terrible, I find the milk in a cupboard and the fruit (banana) in the fridge! More info please! What does it say? Or can someone tell whoever it is I need to tell - I want the OB, CHOGA, Housey, or whatever! I am thinking! (OMG don't all fall over at once!
