Allister Fugill - OH 1973-1980

25 Oct 2024

There’s a Girl in the School! There was a rumour that there was a girl ... in the school. Apparently in the Sixth Form. They were a bit of a mystery in more ways than one, and I cringe to say that, as a young teenager in an all-boys school, I saw them as rather worrying.

But when we entered the Sixth Form ourselves in 1978, we were joined by some lovely young ladies. Their presence among us was quite transformative. Gruff, loutish, testosterone-loaded lads found that they had a remarkably polite and considerate side to them, and several discovered deodorant!
