This is the school l would have gone to if my parents had split up and l had gone back to Liverpool (It is Balliol Road Bootle Grammer School). They nearly did split when we were in Germany and l had just passed my 11 plus (obviously with flying colours), so it was a close thing. It would have been a hell of a lot different from Linacre Lane primary school, that's for sure.
I would have ended up at University or prison, one of the two. Mind you, l went to Durham Prison years ago, so half of that came true anyway. Damn! Just missed out on University then.

Can't believe it, my old school and I'm there, 3rd row from top , 9 in from left. Love to have a full copy if it is available. Never though I'd ever see that photo again , saw it once in late 1950's,mums copy was lost many many years ago, love to have a replacement, especially in full frame without crop.

Haven't got the original l'm afraid. I got the photo off another blog (can't remember which one), but try google image search and you should be lucky.
