The web site is very much still there, sad to say that Facebook controls the world now when it comes to message forums.

Re: Old Codgers

Re: Old Codgers

So Phil and David ..... were you also SNOBs?

Re: Old Codgers

Re: Old Codgers

Yes I was in the first intake (first year at Bourne whilst St. Nicks was built) and left in 1959 as I didn't want to go to university. Didn't cause problems for me as I ended up as the group treasurer for QBE Insurance who are one of the largest insurers/reinsurers in the world. The new snobs web pages are great as I left Ruislip Gardens in 1965 and they have kept me in touch with memories!

Re: Old Codgers

Hi Derek,

Thanks for that. We are currently building a list of all former pupils but there are large gaps and it looks like your brother may fall into one of those, as his name does not currently appear. I would be interested to learn more and am happy to do so on email to get additional information about him.

Cheers

Tim
