ORIGINAL MESSAGE

NAME: Martin Reeves

DATE: 13 March 2014

CONNECTION WITH QE: Pupil 1960-1965

I can offer some information on the third and fourth photos in the Biology School Trips early 60's section of the museum. Both photos were taken in April/May 1964 by Eric Crofts. The fourth photo from the left was taken on the promenade at Borth, a few miles up the coast from Aberystwyth. We were staying at the Borth Youth Hostel and I remember it very well because the pub along the road from the Hostel is where I had my first ever pub pint. I can name all my fellow pupils in Lower 6th Biology (L6B) but not all those in Upper 6th Biology & 7th Biology (U6B/7B).

NOTE FROM VIC: Many thanks for all the names you originally listed in your message, Martin. I've edited them out of your message because they have now all been added to the relevant photo captions.

More names for the 4th photo on Biology School Trips, early 60s. After contacting Mike Day, who was in the photo with me, he suggested John Hamilton, Roger(?) Hollis and Dr Walter Schwabe from the Dept. of Horticulture, Wye College, University of London.

Thanks again, Martin. I've added them to the relevant photo caption, noting their positions in the pic as suggested by Mike (but edited out of your reply).
