Gary,don’t recall a school motto - may be my memory but for all of you who didn’t have the experience of Albert Tatlock’s Latin classes - Respice Finem means ‘Look to the end’ - not exactly Nil nisi satis optimum but there you go!

Glennon was my Housemaster in Campion. He portrayed all the hallmarks of a smug twat - he patronised, he condescended, he riduculed unnecessarily - in short he was a wanker!

My mate Mark Brookes used to stand next to me in assembly and shout out’What’s up Doc?’ when Glennon was taking Assembly - a non too subtle reference to Glennon’s buck teeth! Brookey used to also fart very loudly then say ‘Mr Glennon sir, Cochrane smells!’ I couldn’t protest as I was too busy pissing myself laughing.

As an after thought, once all of the teachers identities have been confirmed, how about dwelling on the positive and contribute to a list of boys names that they collectively taught, and who may have appeared to have been on the downside of accedemic brilliance or perfect behaviour at the time of their attendance at St Kevins, but never the less went on to become highly successful, or famous personalities.

As an example I would like to start by proposing just two names that are internationally known. I’m sure the list could become quite lengthy.

1. John Conteh. W.B.C. World light heavyweight champion.

2. Andrew Schofield. Television + film actor.

Local MP’s have tabled an early day motion to try and stop the ‘haemorrhaging’ of local jobs by the Trinity Mirror group. The motion tabled by Peter Kilfoyle has been signed by local MP’s George Howarth, Frank Field, Edward O’Hara, Ben Chapman, and Claire Curtis-Thomas.

This follows on from the September announcement that 100 printing jobs were to go and a further announcement last month that 43 journalists posts were to be axed from the Post and Echo. That is 143 jobs being thrown away by our so called ‘local’ paper despite it being set to make £25 million profit this year.

What a kick in the teeth for a City which the papers in question claim to be fighting for
