News from OBs

Great to receive the Pelican and read all the news. It makes me feel but a stone's throw away! Life as a physician in Canada is no less busy than in the NHS in England which I left in 1994.

After 6 years as Head of Legal Services at Arcadia Group, I recently set up my own company, Trade Law Matters (www.tradelawmatters.co.uk) to provide basic legal training to people in business.

I have moved from Crowborough in East Sussex to Pagham near Bognor Regis in West Sussex.

Married with teenage daughter. Spent 10 fruitless years in Estate Agency relieving the public of their hard-earned... just too honest.

I cannot believe it is almost four year's since I last visited the Pelican website. and twelve since I left Brighton College. My generation is far too young to habitually check the obituaries, but we are starting to produce the next generation of Brightonians, and also compare premature greying or hair loss. though I still have mine.

I can't believe that 15 years have already passed since we were throwing our hats up in the air after that final recital of Jerusalem in the college chapel. Since then so may things have happened. I did my after A level studies in France and then went to work in the city as a shipbroker and I am still doing it 13 years on and absolutely loving it.

I was Secretary of the OBA Sussex branch in 1960s but moved away later and lost touch with the College. A lapsed member of the OBA, have now rejoined as a life member.

This is the first time I have I made contact since leaving 24 years ago! I went straight from school to Cardiff University to study law (when I met my wife Fiona in 1983 who was studying history in the year below me). Then joined Brighton solicitors DMH Stallard (then known as Donne Mileham & Haddock) where I qualified as a solicitor. Married Fiona in 1991.
