News from William (Bill) Sturges

I have made contact with William (I used to know him as Bill), and he has this news to report: (He might have blogged this himself, but feels that he is not sufficiently PC literate. Give it a go, William!).

Alumni:
  • Nick Lamb: Bill recently (Feb. 2008) met up with Nick - at a mate's funeral in London. (Note that Nick has also recently signed up as an author to this blog.)
  • Charles Ainley: no current whereabouts, but 20 years ago he was in the music business, and was married to a friend of Bill's. They moved to Devon.
  • Edwin Pollard: no current whereabouts; was living in London, Gloucester Rd., from memory.
  • Robin Pennefather: he and Bill keep in close touch. They are each other's God parents for their children. Recently divorced, Robin has moved to Toulouse. France. His oldest son is in the Paras., and the next son is a successful ballet dancer with the Royal Ballet Co. ( gets into the papers quite a bit), and his daughter is a photographer.
  • Leo Slezak: no current whereabouts; maybe N. California. His sister is apparently a successful soap star in the States.
Bill's news:
  • He runs a building/construction Co in Bath, having sold out 45% in 2006 to enable it tio grow. Life is good - he works hard, plays a lot of tennis, and wishes he had snow outside his back door.
  • His son is hooked on skiing and has lived in Verbier for the last 5 years, where he runs an Internet Cafe in the center of town and skis every day when the snow is worth it. He then skis the European summer in Argentina. (Sheesh!)
