I would like to hear from the (few !) friends I had - Kevin Whittle (Wick), David Eckersley (Eggy), Anthony Bainbridge (Bainer), Steven Cooney etc. I was in 5.2 at School.

6/09/01: Debra Grant-Salmon of Hello! For about the past year I have been trying to trace old school friends from Bedford High School/Eccles College and so far I have had no luck. All I want is to catch up on what they are up to. I would love to hear from anyone who remembers me (use the e-mail) especially Karen Blears (went onto Edgehill to do teaching), Lisa Hayes (went to Loughborough?) and Susan Gill (went to Leicester to do pharmacy). I know they all had family in the Leigh/Boothstown area so I am hoping someone will know the names! Thanks! debjez.cruse@ntlworld.com
