My family lived in the house next to the blacks head pub back in 1970-1972.

My parents were very good friends with Frank and Jean and of course Harry.

We still keep in contact with Angie and Martin Weatherhead.

My brother Ed and I were friends with the twins and Ernie.

I would love to know how Frank and Jean are doing as well as find someone who would be willing to tell me how I can get access to the old Upper Heyford High School, contact person, number, anything, to go inside the fence and tour it taking pictures.

Kids who went to the high school still to this day keep in contact via the internet and have reunions every year.  I want to visit in the near future again, but without the school access, I doubt I will be able to.

Please someone help me.  Bletchington still to this day remains a very special place in my lifetime.
