The Day I Crashed Into The Sports Master's Car
A Memory of Corby.
This brings back the very vivid memory of me cycling into the bottom of the driveway and heading straight into the Sports Master's car (whose name eludes me!) and ending up on his bonnet, needless to say he was not amused! I was banned from cycling thereafter! I attended Corby Grammar when it was newly opened, and was taught Latin by Colin Dexter - a wonderful tutor. I was in 5 Shell in my last year, and remember Virginia Goodings, Janet Chant, Valerie Stockburn, Reginald Chick, Mo Thornton and others. I wonder where they all are now? I also remember being interviewed for a BBC programme by a Scottish reporter Fyfe Robertson, I think he was called. He commented on my very modern bouffant hairdo! I also remember the freezing cold water of the swimming pool, and did my best to avoid swimming lesson -, needless to say I never learned to swim, I was put off for life!
