Hi Julia, You must be from Stoke then because my brother played football with Garth Crooks in the Stoke Youth side years ago. I went to the same school as Anthea and Wendy Turner but not at the same time. Kath |

My father-in-law always told us that Boris Karloff (can't remember his real name) went to his school. Dad often romanced a little, so we thought, but having proved his stories true through research I am inclined to believe this story. Susan |

Thanks, Dave. I would have gone to bed wondering and probably woken at 2 in the morning still wondering. I remembered it was Pratt as soon as I saw your message. Susan |
