Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Well we've had a couple of days with no posts, so may I wish all Old Boys, particulalry those I know, a Very Happy Christmas and Prosperous New Year. As one of the very few to have met Chris and his family I would particulary like to thank him for the excellent work he puts in to maintain this site from Singapore.

A Happy New Year to everyone using this website, from Gill and me, and particularly to those Old Boys we know through the (for-the-time-being) annual reunions.

I rememebr Gus Cullingford mentioning that 'Mea mater mala sus est'
can mean 'My mother is eating pork' or 'My mother is a bad pig'

Changing the language who remembers 'Vater Fuchs ars elf eier dammit'
