I’ve got a photo from 1961/62 - I still have nightmares about Mrs McGlynn -she used to rap my knuckles when I was 6 with a pencil regularly because she insisted I did not know how to spell my surname. My mum had to intervene!

I left in 1963 the winter of the snow so guess I’m in that photo too!
 
This has brought back a bad memory of being forced to finish semolina pudding by Mrs McGlynn in 1966/67. Hated the stuff since!
Mr Williams was the PE teacher by then and Garry Nelson was in the school team. Now what ever happened to him?
 
Garry was in the year below me at Holt Farm (and later SHSB). Aged seven he was already in the school team and was probably even then the best player on the pitch. I sponsored his SUFC socks one year and he delivered them personally as he only lived at the end of my road.

Fotunately I wasn’t in mrs mcglynn‘s class in the infants. I agree she was terrifying. I had the much nicer Mrs Young.

Mr Williams of course later married the dreaded Miss Bass. Now there was a scary woman.

Have you read Garry’s two books? - very good reads available on Amazon!
