Comment for The Keighlian advert:

How many of you 'out there' were members of this esteemed society? Do you still have your regalia? I think I read somewhere on the site a while ago that it no longer exists and may have folded after the last formal reunion dinner.

Comment for Mr L.G.Clarke:

Mr Clarke (Neddy to some of his students) superseded Jo Watthey as headmaster in 1970 having joined the school from Beauchamp School, Oadby (Head of Maths there) as deputy head in 1968. Apparently quite a rare occurrence at the time for such an internal promotion.

Comment for Mathematical Pie:

This external publication was alluded to in a separate thread I started on various KBGS publications.

Here is my defaced front and back sheet from an early edition. As you can see the long-running "pie" numbers appear at the bottom. I don't know why I kept this as I wasn't predisposed to Mathematics and indeed it took me three attempts to pass 'O' level with JMB or possibly AEB.
