CONNECTION WITH QE: Pupil 1951-58
Does any one remember Mr P J Livingston? He taught maths and physics 1951-55. He was my form master in class 2B (why we became 2B after starting as 1A I never discovered - we were the last entry of two first forms - there were three from 1952 onwards). He got the nick-name Stan (from Stanley) - we did Africa in geography that year hence the Stanley/Livingston connection. The way boys minds worked! He was a very good teacher - quietly spoken - always said "be quiet please", never "shut up". Well almost never, we must not have responded one day when he made a great effort and shouted "SHUT UP!" - great laughter by all, including him. He taught us maths in forms 2B, 3B and 4 after that we has Bernie Pinnock who wasn't quite as good. In form 5 and TX we had Livingstone for physics.& When he left he was replaced by Fairbairn. Livingstone also started the Magic Club. He left teaching to go into 'Business' we were told but had no idea what he did. Any more info or memories would be welcome.
