I left Peter Symonds' (sorry about the apostrophe!!)...in 1947. I was in the Lower Sixth Form at that time. In 1950 I emigrated to Australia, and I have been here since. I remember Doctor Freeman and of course Mr Jones very well,,,,,and also the Greek master at the time. I have made desultory enquiries over the years as to any one who was at school with me, but to no avail as yet. I was in the Air Cadets at school. If anyone recalls anything, I would be very pleased to hear from them. Roy C.S. Crosswell

About John Freeman
Yes, it seems we can still post. So we have no excuse for not continuing to natter away.
So I'd like to put out an appeal for any information that anyone might have regarding a grandson of Doc Freeman's: this is John Freeman, son of Doc's son Bill. (Bill is still alive, but not very open to being approached, apparently). John was born about 1949. I know nothing of his present whereabouts.
I got this scanty information from Tim Renton, son of Doc's daughter Joyce. I'd appreciate any leads that might help me to contact John - or indeed, any other surviving descendant of Doc.
Thanks
Chris

photos
As new member of this web site I was puzzled at my inability to download photos. I have contacted MSN Groups Technical Support - here is their reply, possibly not very satisfactory but they are aware.
"Neill, we have received reports from other customers regarding this. The server that hosts your MSN Group is currently undergoing maintenance or experiencing technical difficulties. Our product team is aware of this issue and is working diligently to fix this. Resolving this issue is a top priority. However, we cannot commit to a specific timeframe as to when a solution will be released. We appreciate your patience."
I would like to see the photos as well. I have only one photo taken of me at school, a group shot when I was in the CCF. I will send it to Jim and Mike when I have a moment or two.
Kind regards to all.
