I recall m engaged in some kind of project that entailed recording and documenting ained glass in churches across the town. called in at the Donnison School last week and met an ex-WHCG colleague o I hadn't seen for 25 years! If that wasn't scary enough, someone showed a photograph of us all together in the office, which was located in the rmer St Mary's Primary School (then part of Sunderland Polytechnic). Of urse, the building was originally an infirmary and I think it might have ter had a lease of life as some kind of Catholic seminary. egards...
