I don't know if you can use any of these but, the clearer of the three is Keith Rutter (right) in his school uniform, we have no idea who the  kid on the left is, maybe a gate crasher(?)
The second one is of someone Keith tells me is called  Karen(?) This was taken when the fourth year went on a trip to a place called Borick Hall. What a bizarre week that was, I still haven't discovered what it was about.
 Several of us attended the C.A. at Minsterley on a Wednesday afternoon, mostly the rabble element looking back, I think it was possibly a lesson in social skills, it turned out to be nothing more than the freedom to smoke all afternoon, play table tennis, and generally lark around with the teachers (Mr Baguley  to name one.)
 A couple of other schools were involved and sent some of their own misfits to join us.
The last is of  3 people we recognise, but only one that we can name, the lad in the middle is called Peter Dinsdale,(same year as us) this we know because Keith had written his name on the back.

Many thanks to Keith Rutter(supplied photo's) and Anton King (supplied narrative).
For everyones information, the kid on the left (top pic) is Ian Agar (obviously doing his Patrick Moore impression)who was in the same year as me.
Two of the pics have clearly suffered the ravages of time, but somewhere out there is a pot of gold(in pic form..lol), lets hope its found soon.
I should imagine these pics are from 1973 (ish!)
Notice the school uniform Keith is wearing, we had the coolest uniform in the area, far better than Poundswick and Sharston.... but thats for another page.
