Can you ask the police to return our treasure which we buried in kingswood dell just behind the Dolphin pub Susie.All two bob in coppers. Terrance Winship,Kenny Farnes ,David Hawes,& Denis Baird. We want it back lol. The only addy i had was midgetmarfa by the way,iv'e been sending you emails for two weeks ,and getting them back[stomps off into the corner in a huff] Fred.

Thanks Susie, yes it was Castlefield - don't know why I couldn't remember that name. Hatters Lane - used to have to wear that horrible brown beret too. Always hid it until I got to the school gates then put it on - vice versa on the way home.

Susie Don't feel like a spring chicken at the moment lol. Uniform was grey and white when I went there gold told off for having a grey skirt with gold threads through it wasn't impressed lol

fred lol i'll tell him that lol. i bet you cant believe what has been happening up your neck of the woods eh fred totteridge lane,micklefield etc. the golden fleece pub is the haunt of all the tv channels reporters at the moment lol my bro is in his element,its his local saying that,booker woods and common are now all cordoned off aswell. police everywhere

lol I still cant bring myself to wear brown not that I did much because I was a rebel and wore a black skirt oh and you should have seen the 'bombers' we had to wear for PE.

When i went to Hatters lane Suzie,Holmer Green secondary school was for the country bumkins lol,from the water cress beds.Fred.

dawn you mean you're only a spring chicken! hubby went to holmer green secondary and he never tires of telling me that it was for the elite...yeah rite. how come his spelling and grammer are so awful then lol

ooh it became mixed just before I went there then.

sheila lol i remember that awful brown uniform that hatters lane bods wore pmsl at least ours was navy blue:( i left cressex in 1975 but i walk past it every day.i did know a few people from hatters lane but their names escape me lol

Hi Susie They mixed the school just after I left in 1977 and Im really glad I didn't have to cope with that lot lol. From what Ive been told the name change didn't improve things that much but then again I don't think it could have been any worse than it was in the 70's...scarred for life I am and I know Trish agrees with me lol

sheila lol the balls are big concrete ones that sit scattered along the high street,which is now a pedestrian zone! ah..except for buses and taxis lol

the prison on the hill is now called highcrest and its mixed sex! i went to cressex school.not much better than hatters lane lol. trish do you mean castlefield lol. fred whoops lol.mums doing ok,now that her wheelchair has arrived,at last! have you got my ntl email addy if not i'll send it over to you. susie

I left about...oh my god!!....27 years ago, I still have a lot of family there but I don't think Ive been back more than a handful of times in all those years,

Sheila when abouts did you leave. Small world cos you come from my home twon and are now in the county my hubby is from

Whats right with Hatters Lane more like lol Yep when they dished out the brains I missed out ..as you can tell from the schools me and my sisters went to. I still can't remember any balls in Wycombe though. Maybe they arrived after I left.

Sheila and whats wrong with Hatters Lane lol that now has a new name as well the head was on Radio 2 a while back as they are having trouble with parking at pick up time and they publish the car number plates to shame the parents. Sister went to Wycombe High see shes the intelligent one and I'm the thicko

Nice to see another Wycombe thread! My eldest sister went to Wycombe High School, the other sister went to Mill End and I got stuck with Hatters Lane :( I still remember the old blue police box on frogmoor. It was around the time when the original Doctor Who started and I was terrified of it and I remember the bus garage being down near there before they built the, now old, shopping centre. Sheila (now feeling very old)

Memories !!! Some very unhappy days spent at Wycombe High School, some great memories of the Rye !! A couple of years spent at Wycombe College of Technology & Art (was opposite the hospital) Worked as a medical secretary in the hospital for a few years Used to have some good dances/concerts in Wycombe Town Hall Woolworths in the High Street used to be Red Lion Hotel I believe - can remember some golden balls hanging outside!! Still visit occasionally as my brothers live close by.

Fred Had a mate in Naphill and went out with someone from the RAF base their oh the memories. Went to the cinema in frogmore with my sister when the riots were on and they wouldn't let us out unless our parents were there to pick us up. Had that nice little pay kiosk in the foyer and then up the stairs to the cinema.

Away Susie,you forgot to mention that The Odeon was on Castle Street,and it was The palace ,and Rex on Frogmore,hows that for a memory,through frogmore did indeed take you out on the road to naphill,saunderton and and Great Kingshill,and Raf bomber command. Hows Mum Susie,i did try to send you an e,mail asking ,but it kept bouncing [sniffle ]Fred.
