The Return of the Peanut.

[Guest]

By Christ it's hard to get through to you lot!!!

 

I posted on your old Chatterbox just after last Christmas hoping for some information regarding the old sea school in Denton and wishing you the best for your attempts at promotion to the conference.

 

Not only did I receive the information required (thanks to all that remember the postings) but both Gravesend and Kettering gained the promotion required for me to now make my pilgrimage this Saturday.

 

The question I now need answering is this. (and this is assuming that the colledge still stands.)

 

How long will it take me in a taxi to visit the old place from the town centre? Bearing in mind that I will only be arriving on the Supporters coach at around 12.30. I only want to take a couple of photos of the place and try to remember myself in the ill fitting uniform and how on Earth I survived the three months of purgatory.

 

Sad, I know. But it just has to be done.

 

 

Many thanks to anybody who can help me. It will be my first return to your town since September 1974.

 

Regards j.c.

I don't know if it is still there....but if it is....I would imagine a 15 Minute cab ride...depending on how long it takes to get out of town.....

 

Cheers,

How many are you bringing on Saturday ?

 

Hopefully loads as we need all the gate money we can get...

Last time I went past it on the train, it looked like they were in the process of demolishing it.

 

I might be wrong though.

Last I heard the Met were using it as a training ground

The Met Police are indeed using / going to use it as a firearms training facility.
