I thought it was Mr Beasly, cos we called him Scobie (not too far from the Australian jockey Scobie Breasley). He certainly taught Geology.

It is a sobering thought to realise most of these teachers will have passed on...............

At the time Mr Howarth was reputed to have played for Preston North End reserves, who lost to the Hammers (Yea!) in the 1963-64 F A Cup Final. Maybe I was just gullible

Was it Mr Thompson who ran a old Jag XK120/140/150?
