St Lawrence’s Primary ( Feltham)
Gunnersbury School for Boys Chiswick and Brentford
So a good catholic boy with Italian heritage. Any other schools scared of Brentford School for Girls? We were, all of us. Hounslow Bus Station was a war zone sometimes, and I lived in Feltham so you think I might stand a chance.
Gunnersbury was a rugby school, never lost the faith though ( sort of Catholic / QPR joke there) | | | |

I liked it...a bit daunting at first coming from a small primary school to a place with about 1100 boys but settled ok once I made a few mates. It was pretty strict, but I didn't mind that structure and there were a couple of teachers there who became role models/mentors. Having said that, there were also some wrong 'uns, but I suppose every school has its share?
It was the first place that I really met people from a different class other than working, so I suppose it started to open my eyes a bit and I thought there might be different ways to live.
Sixth form was the best, girls arrived and the smelly spotty herberts I'd been to school with for the past 5 years were transformed over the summer holidays. I fell in love/lust daily for the next 2 years. | | | |

Had I gone there I would have been there pretty much the same time as you.
The school I ended up in tried to be strict but did not really succeed and had a lot of kids who didn't really care that much, so it was easy to get lazy, not that I have any one to blame for that but myself. It sounds like the kind of place where I would have had to be less lazy! | | | |

Gunnersbury - evil local derby for St Benedict's. Never lost one fortunately. Apparently used to be a bit of trouble at parties too, but as I was never invited...  | | | |

when i was in the third year at QK, 1973, we had a history teacher named mr Emin.
he took a group of us kids to see performance starring mick jagger, the film was an x cert,
pretty full on stuff for kids of 13/14 years old, drink, drugs, violence and all kinds of kinky sex in the film, well it was mick jagger.
the cinema was the one on the embankement somewhere, festival something.
anyway, thats how i remembered mr emin, until you mentioned him i'd completely forgot he existed.......thats if its the same person. | |
