Denis I spotted your query on the RLSO site on the Training ships site and noted the dates you were at the Orphanage-You apparently left as I arrived-I entered the school on 24th March 1940 at Frankby. I would suggest you contact George Bennett if you require any information on the transition period from Newsham to Frankby. He was probably one of your contempories and has written 2 books on life at the RLSO.His first one written in about1952 called With No Regrets is like hens teeth and hard to get and he has just published another (I received my copy yesterday-19thJuly 2004) called Orphans Without Tears. His address is 7 Larkhill Avenue,Upton,Wirral,Merseyside and his email address is George.Bennett1@btinternet.com George also organises the Old Scholars Reunions and I am sure he would appreciate hearing from you. My email address if you should like to contact me direct is piparth@bigpond.net.au
Warmest regards Pete Arthur Kadina South Australia
