This website might prove useful to anyone wishing to regain contact with former schoolfriends, and in this respect I would love to here from you. Indeed, I would be delighted to add your story to the site, or maybe you might just like to send me your contact details. (see Alumni/pupils section)

Norman, It would be nice if you would hotlink me to Lisa Weinstein. We were close friends back in 1956 at St Mary's
You might ask for Peter Friedman and John Rolf at the same time as they were pals

[Norman's Note: Thank you for your email. I hope someone reads this that can help you, I'll copy it to the wanted page]

Hi Norman, I am writing a book on an Irish artist Donal O’Sullivan (1945–91) and trying to find ‘long lost’ works of his both for the book and a retrospective exhibition.

Recently I found a work mentioned in a 1975 Irish newspaper entitled ‘Death in Venice’ which was in the ‘collection of Maurice Fridberg’.

Maurice died in Dublin in 1993 and his wife Audrey some years later. Maurice had a daughter, Susan (b. 1950), from his first marriage.

There were no children from his subsequent marriage. So, conceivably, Susan inherited his estate.

The link in your site threw up the name Susan Fridberg which is almost certainly his daughter. I do not know if you could put an ‘appeal’ out on the site for anyone who might know her.

[Norman's Note: Thank you for your email. You certainly have the right Susan, she was a boarder at the same time as myself and I remember her well.
I hope someone reads this that can help you I'll copy it to the wanted page]

Dear Norman
I am trying to contact Mayo Elstob cos he was a friend of mine at a critical time between the ages of 10 and 12.
My name is Mark Tobin - nickname Kram Nibot. I would love to hear from him.

Dear Norman

I am trying to contact Mayo Elstob who I understand was a former pupil at the school. Any help would be appreciated, The reason I am trying to contact Mayo is that I am hoping that his father was the author Peter Elstob who was my fathers tank commander in WWII. Peter Elstob wrote a novel called 'Warriors for the Working Day' and dedicated it to his sons including Mayo Elstob. I am obviously working on the hunch that there can't be many Mayo Elstobs out there with similar backgrounds.

Kind Regards

I sat next to Vincent Young during the academic year 1963-64, and would very much like to make contact with him. Please pass on my email address: szilouf@hotmail.com. Many thanks, best wishes Sabah (my English name is now Simon) Zilouf

My name is Claire Armon-Jones (was Claire Green) and I was at St. Mary's at the same time as you, I think. I was there aprox. 1964 - 6. My contemporaries were people such as Ilona Lazar, Cathy Anderson, Melanie King, Joshua Thomas?, Mayo Elstob, etc. I just wanted to ask whether you have any contact details for the people above. I look forward to hearing from you Claire Armon-Jones; Now supplied

ROBIN NEUBERG (now Robin White) would LOVE TO FIND OUT where her best friend at school is now... this is REINA JAMES. She would love to get in touch. Robin now lives in Vall de Alcala, Spain - She can be contacted at tristan_white@rocketmail.com (her son, Tristán's email - he will pass it on to her)

And Finally, here is a call going out for Anjelica Huston.
Anjelica, I have a clear memory of you, together with Reina James, Patti Palmer, Katie Riddley (AKA Bunty) and some others, accompanying yourselves with guitar and singing in assembly. I sat awe inspired, as you perched on a stool, à la Joan Baez, or our very own Julie Felix, the epitome of cool from my early teenage perspective. I see you have recalled some early schooling in the UK in interviews, but never mentioned the Town & Country School. Do drop us a line and let us know what you recall of the old place, at the same time, lending our website a bit of Hollywood glitz, after all you are surely our most famous pupil?
Yours, ever hopefull, Norman.

WANTED!
