I couldn't believe there was a picture of Lionel Prins. He punched me in the mouth once. If I hadn't had braces at the time I would have lost a few teeth! The other feller in the picture with Scotlaws is Cooper. I can't remember his first name.

To think I have been up here in Kamloops, B.C. for 30 years, and you down there in Tsawassen. The number of times I have driven by your place on the way to the ferry... the mind boggles.
Hope I get a chance to re-acquaint with some Old Royals.
My brother Philip Lockton, who attended Bexhill ('55-'58) passed away last year.
I was at RMNS for the same period.
Have lost other friends from that era... Keith Muttitt for one!

Comments:The updated pictures of Bearwood are quite spectacular and bring a flood of memories. Very nice site and easy to navigate around which is always good. I have just read the book "All Brave Sailors" after seeing some info on it on the official Bearwood website. Having ordered it from Barnes and Noble, I was anxious to start reading it and frankly couldn't put it down. The only book which I had read which sparked so much interest prior to that was probably the DeVinci Code. This is a spectacular read and I look forward to sometime meeting Ted Milburn, an OR whose family is featured in the book and who was responsible for returning a piece of British History back to London. If you want to know more read the book!! Thanks again for the great site and the very best to all OR's, where ever you may be !

Makes you think though, that there must be a lot more photos out there. All the same I now have 958 of them downloaded to my computer.

I beleive this photo to be taken in 1944 , at the same time as that of Junior House and of Grenville ( and there must have been photos of the senior houses taken too). Names I think are;
Front row; Hicton,Green, Brook (Headmaster and also chaplain and teacher of Divinity before arrival of Bromley; nick-name "the Bear"), Ferris ("Bessie", housemaster of Raleigh and Geography master before Percy Harmer), Sinclair
Back row; First person from left is uncertain but may be a flattering photo of Dozy Barker!, then Lee (Mathematics til 1950), Bromley (chaplain before Naffy Davidson), Board ("Greezer Board", housemaster of Grenville). Hope this is of interest!

Thank you Ganderton brothers for making it possible to have Bearwood in my house in Holland. Does anyone know what happened to Davie MacKay, Adje Barette or Spike Turbitt?

Comments:I have got this website up and running again. It has been down for several months because the Internet Service Provider that was hosting my site went South. So I had to find another one. I am now with Telus and you should be able to access it again. From time to time I will add items to the website.
Feel free to comment and if there is anyone you wish to contact please let me know.
If you have any photos you can send or email me I would be pleased to put them on the webpage.

Comments:Hi Brian. Here I am again signing your book. You've done another great job and I'm sure it will just keep on getting better.
I was at the RMNS from 1942 to 1948. Now living in Australia but have lived in Italy, South Africa and New Hebrides (now Vanuatu). Was in the RN for national service, became a maths and science teacher but later managed many sorts of businesses until having my own wholesaling business in Darwin.

It's great to dream of times gone by, but even greater to re-live the memories.

Comments:I think I signed THE BOOK a while ago but....I just want to say how great it is to know that you are all out there. Any confusion over my name is because we all, Sylvia Norma and I had the Jamieson in our name...I just took Jamie instead of Jean when I was 18.
