    Just found a photo on Facebook, an old school friend has posted it. We think it's around 1963, I'm second from left in the middle row:

        Nice haircut JWK. :heehee:

        I think I can beat that though. Here's my school photo from 1965, I'm the one second from right at the front, waving my right arm in the air. :redface:

                          That wasn't a teacher, it was the headmaster. I believe his son is doing the same job now.
