“Some of themostmemorable sessions
atMTS that I enjoyedwere the “Three
Sixths” - the only timewe sat together
- on a Friday afternoon, withNorman
Birley in the chair in the Physics Lecture
Theatrewhenwe learned how tomove
an amendment to an amendment or refer
it back as themood took you.
In the subsequent seventy years I
have served almost without a break
as an electedmember on three Parish
Councils, one Rural District Council and
aCountyCouncil and enjoyed practically
everyminute of it. “StandingOrders”
have a fascination all of their own....not
enjoyed bymany, but invaluable in a
difficult and tense situation.
My time atMTSwas followed by a
B.Sc. inCivil Engineering at Bristol and
then two years as a StaffCaptainR.E.
