attended townfield secondary modern in 1956-7 under Mr Holmes. headmaster Mr Rogers and the wonderful music teacher Mr Jones. my best friend was Roy Phelps. The time spent there shaped my adult life for which l am very thankful. Grown up as an ordinary guy and had a fabulous marriage for 46 years before she passed on.
Have lived in Spain for last 22 years and really enjoyed it and to me is home although l often daydream of the life l had in England
