Hi Michael,

I hope all is well with you.

I was sorting out some cupboards and drawers at home the other day and came across my old school scarf, bought has a Xmas present (I seem to remember) by my Grandmother in 1955. Looking a little like me these days, old, worn and a bit tatty round the edges. However I thought you might like a photo of it for the museum, please find attached.

All the best.

First may I say how great the Central School site is becoming.

Having just seen the Jimmy's Locker entry I think I can shed some light on the form photograph, I am middle row 2nd from left, Brian Ball. The photo is of form 2a in 1957, I've been working the old grey matter and I think I've got most of the names, so here goes.

I think I've got that right, but it was nearly 50 years ago, so apologies for any that do turn out to be wrong.

I might have 1 or 2 amusing tales to tell about Jim, I also knew him from scouting connections, but hopefully will put pen to paper later.
