"The Harrow" Group

LtoR: Dudley Coakes, Chris Nash, Duncan McGregor, Chris Slyfield, John Weakley & Ian Sargeant

20 February, 2008

Same crowd (more or less), same location, beer tasted the same, the bellies are all a bit bigger and the stories of the old days are as fresh as ever in our minds – this is the stuff of life, not at all boring! The 1955 intake kept the flame burning for another year!

	Wednesday, 21 February, 2007 The usual group of the 1955 intake met at their customary watering hole of “The Harrow” pub in Compton for the usual evening of reminiscence and mutual admiration. They were instantly recognisable by the fact that most were wearing the same clothes as in previous years. The animated discussion inevitably turned towards Duncan’s car collection – what car had he come in tonight? It turned out to be his Aston Martin DB4, so the last act of the evening was to be photographed around this glorious classic.

The annual get-together of old boys met at The Harrow, Compton on 14 February. (This event gets good coverage on this site because it includes the webmaster.) There were several apologies for absence, so the group isn’t necessarily shrinking! We should perhaps avoid evenings when some people seem to feel obliged to have a romantic evening with their wives or mistresses (though not both at the same time, one assumes).

The intake of 1955 met again at The Harrow in Compton to celebrate 50 years since they came together as first formers at FGS. Convened by Tony Hayward, there were 8 old boys from that year group of 60, which represents, er…um…, well quite a good percentage.

Nearly a dozen old boys, mostly from the 1955/56 intake, met for what is now a traditional get-together at The Harrow pub in Compton. This annual event is largely inspired by Tony Hayward and Chris Nash, who network their contemporaries with the details. Nothing elaborate - just a drink together for a catch-up on news of each other and to enjoy a nostalgic reminiscence. Here's a couple of pics…
