My name is John hawley  I went to Trent bridge seniors for my first year only in 1958 then left and went to Highbury school 

I now live in ilkeston 

I’m looking in particular to find out if anyone knows the whereabouts of a Barry straw who was at school with me 

He was my next door neighbour on rye hill terrace in the meadows I would love to hear from or about him and anyone else that remembers me

Seeing Affergorrit's post above reminded me that he told us at the last Roebuck meeting that he was going to San Francisco in the near future. I recommended that he visit a place that none of the tourists go to. It is the Bloomingdale's store (classy like our John Lewis). It is situated nearby the Market Street end of the Cable car terminus. It is one floor up in the building and the two pictures below show its wonderful Art Deco, black, white and glass layout inside. An absolute feast for the eyes.
