As teachers we sometimes are surprised at what our students remember
from schooldays.
When I was in the fourth form of Holgate (and the first year that Vic
taught me English) I took the role of Cecily Cardew in the school play
of that year - 1964 - a production of "The Importance of Being
Earnest" directed by a member of the Modern Languages staff in fact -
a Mr Bevan. The school followed the Shakespearean tradition of using
boys to play the female roles.
Vic, however, was the reviewer for the production and the notice was
placed in the school magazine - the Alumnus. His verdict on my
performance was as follows:
"Wake, though visually attractive, lacked the timing necessary to be
an unqualified success."
I think his assessment was pretty accurate and I have tried to live up
to it.

I just want to share this here,
ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in August 2010. A valuable friend told me about Dr. Itua Herbal Center in West Africa. She gave me her phone number and email address. I quickly contacted him to guarantee that his herbal medicines will heal my cancer and I will heal forever I said OK.I ask him what is the healing process, he asks me to pay the fees I did and within 7 working days he sent me the herbal medicine and then he asked me I told my friend Gomez about the herbal drug so that he gave me to go and drink it.So after drinking for two weeks, I was cured, I am so grateful and I promise that I will do it I recommend to anyone who has cancer and that that I am doing. Herbal medicine Dr. Itua makes me believe that there is hope for people with all kinds of disease or need herbal medicine for illness , Here is his contact information [Email ... drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com.
