This year’s dinner will be held in the Great Hall at the School, complete with musical entertainment and will give members a chance to see some impressive new buildings. We thank Funda Ozmus for her support of the Club during her time as the School’s Development Director and are pleased to welcome Matt Jarrett and his deputy Adriana Williams who started just a few weeks ago.

City of London civic traditions were observed, with fanfares and music by the London Banqueting Ensemble, the Ceremony of the Loving Cup and the Rose Water Bowl. Grace was said by Rev Joan Crossley, the Chairman, Alexander Malmaeus (OK 1984) proposed the toast to the Worshipful Company of Fan Makers and to the School, John Naylor proposed the toast to the Corporation of London and the Head Master of King’s College Junior Schol, Dr Gerard Silverlock, proposed the toast to the Old King’s Club: “may it flourish, root and branch, forever”. Over half of those who attended left the School in the year 2000 or later. Many younger members expressed enthusiasm for the variety of venues in which the annual dinners had been held in recent years.

As in 2013, it will be held in the Great Hall to musical accompaniment. Chris Hull’s catering department goes from strength to strength and we can promise a fine meal with good wines. The early phases of the School’s ambitious development programme can now be seen; the beautiful quadrangle with the war memorial which replaced the hard play area is a fine example. In 2013, School Organist Carl Jackson accompanied the members as they attempted to sing the nearly forgotten King’s College School Song. If we promise to practice beforehand, he may let us have another go! 82013 / OKC Annual NEWSLETTER Dinner in the / APRIL Great 201Hall6 21 JUNE 2016 CAREERS EVENING Volunteers from the Old King’s Club, who are chosen by pupils of the Lower 6th Form, will give two half-hour seminars to small groups.

These events have gained quite a following among the younger crowd but all members of the Old King’s Club are welcome. 11 / OKC NEWSLETTER / APRIL 2016 17 MARCH 2016 DUEL DAY DINNER Due to an early Easter and the Archbishop of Canterbury’s schedule, this year’s dinner was held at the Savile Club in Mayfair instead of Lambeth Palace. An extremely jovial evening reached its climax with the re-enactment of the 1829 duel between the Duke of Wellington and the Earl of Winchelsea. The part of Jeremy Bentham was played by Richard Criddle (OK 1986). www.oldkingsclub.org.uk/activities/duel-day-dinner 12 / OKC NEWSLETTER / APRIL 2016 13 / OKC NEWSLETTER / APRIL 2016 CROSS-COUNTRY The annual Old King’s Club v. School v. Staff cross-country race takes place on the first Saturday in December at 10.30am, and is a two-and-a-half mile run around Wimbledon Common starting at the Fox and Grapes. The 2015 individual winner was Tom Lettice (OK 2008), just ahead of Hugh Train (OK 2012). Tom was presented with the Kevin Hawney Cup after the race. Many thanks to James Trapmore for organising the event and to the School for providing the refreshments - we look forward to seeing you on 3 December 2016! JULIAN SMITH CRICKET A second gathering of Old King’s cricketers (mostly from the 1960s) but also including several former members of staff, enjoyed a day’s cricket at Lord’s on June 29th 2015. The match was Middlesex against Hampshire and through the good offices and extraordinary administrative skills of David Holland the reunion group of 36 enjoyed the facilities of two boxes. Food - and a small amount of drink - were consumed, and a good day of reminiscence and renewal of friendships was enjoyed by all. The Old King’s Club will play the School on Sunday 26 June 2016 and refreshments will be served in the Cricket Pavilion. This will coincide with the OKC Sports and Family Day. 14 / OKC NEWSLETTER / APRIL 2016 TENNIS The OKC will be entering the 2016 D’Abernon Cup and the qualifying competition for that will take place in April. CHRIS DIACON RIFLE CLUB The Club had a very busy 2015 season with a number of new members joining the Club who ranged in experience - novices through to highly skilled shots. Last season was capped off by our Christmas shoot at 200 yards. A wide range of firearms, some historic, were dusted off and used. This was followed by our Christmas lunch, for which we took over the Surrey’s historic clubhouse. We rounded things off in front of the blazing log fire with a prize-giving, mince pies and coffee, and the odd drink from the bar. Our first shoot of the new season was in January. It was a leisurely after-lunch “gallery” rifle shoot at 25 yards. A full programme of target, gallery, action and shotgun events has been booked for 2016. Notably, this includes the Schools’ Veterans Competition in July, during Bisley’s Imperial Meeting. The shoot is followed by our traditional bubbly and buffet on Century Range’s 600 yards firing point. The Club has upgraded its range of Target Rifles and we are now well equipped to compete. A major investment programme is also underway to improve the ranges and facilities at Bisley. We have a number of Guest Days throughout the year so novices as well as shooters from past School teams and their friends and family would be most welcome to come to the Club. Come and see for yourself how much fun you can have. RICHARD HUDSON 15 / OKC NEWSLETTER / APRIL 2016 FOOTBALL 1st XI The season began with much optimism for the 1st XI. Having retained their place in the Arthurian League’s Premier Division, there was a strong belief that the team could kick on and really make a purposeful challenge to the established order of Old Carthusians, Old Forresters and Lancing Old Boys. An excellent off-season in terms of recruitment has seen the likes of Jack Stephenson (OK 2012), Josh Tingle (OK 2009), Oliver Hewitt (OK 2012) and James Barton (OK 2015) all establish themselves within the squad, however the team has been unable to fulfil its potential, often finding themselves dominating possession and play before losing by the narrowest of margins. 2016 will see the team have to fight for their survival and show plenty of character and determination; qualities shown in abundance when they came back from 4-0 down at half-time to draw 4-4 away at Old Chigwellians, the highlight of the season thus far. A disappointing exit in the Arthur Dunn Cup to Old Radleians at the last 16 stage has been compensated for by a very strong showing in the AFA Senior Cup, where the 1st XI have reached the last 16 and took on the Honourable Artillery Company 1st XI in January.

David Richardson: My name's David Richardson. Interviewer: What's your involvement with the club? David Richardson: I started here as a fan at the football club, later moving on to being a photographer and then the videographer. Now I'm back doing photography again. Interviewer: Okay, so when did you first become involved with the club? David Richardson: I first became involved with the club, filming wise, back in 2001/2002 season. It might have been 2002/2003 season. Before that I was doing photographs. The photographs I started taking were from the side of the pitch. I was using a 0.3 megapixel camera. They were being used - I created my own website. I used to go home and away games, the fans and I had the pictures on the website with a little bit of talking about what we were doing, going round different fish shops, what the burgers were like at different places and the programmes. Then I got a 1.3 megapixel camera and it had a good optical zoom on it. Steve Watkins, who looked after the website with Spencer, said, "Can we use your photos for the website?" and I said, "Yes, no problem at all." I supplied them with my photos from where I was taking and it moved on to me actually getting pitch side access. I was actually sat by the side of the pitch taking the photos and they were going to the website.

  • Of Our Foundation
    Finding more effective ways to detect and treat cancer OF OUR FOUNDATION Bob and I set up our Foundation 10 years ago because we’d been asked for help. We’d not been asked to set up a charity, just if we knew anyone who might like to donate some money to equip a new cancer drug trials centre. That request came from Professor Ruth Plummer, a woman I admire greatly. She was trying to raise £500,000 to fit out what eventually became the Sir Bobby Robson Cancer Trials Research Centre. They were moving the clinical trials team from its old site to a fantastic, purpose-built facility in the Northern Centre for Cancer Care in Newcastle. As Bob said at the time, they’re a first class team and should have a first class stadium. Alongside a marvellous team of caring professionals, Professor Plummer gives patients the opportunity to try new cancer drugs that might help extend their lives. And in undertaking the trials, these patients are helping build our knowledge about cancer treatment. They’re helping the people who will come after them who will also have to face this terrible disease. Well, Bob and I didn’t understand how Professor Plummer and her colleagues could raise this huge sum of money and keep doing such a demanding day job. That’s why we decided to launch our charity, Lady Elsie with Zara Stokoe, who has been fundraising in memory of her mum, Avril to raise the money for her. It was one of the proudest moments in my husband’s life when he was We don’t have professional fundraisers to organise events or able to hand over that first cheque for money we’d raised.

So what got you interested in Stevenage? Cameron: Well, I went to see a match a few years ago and then I liked it and then I went to a few more matches when I was a bit older and I just got involved in it. Sam: What was that first match like? Cameron: Kidderminster. I don’t really remember much about it, all I remember was just walking out into the big Webley stadium when we beat them 3-2 but I don’t really remember anything else. I don’t actually remember the match, all I remember is the score and eating some lettuce sandwiches actually. Sam: Really. 2 Cameron: How old were you? Sam: Eight. Cameron: Who took you to that match? Sam: My dad and I also went with two of my brothers. Cameron: Do they support Stevenage?

  • The Stag Owners Club – Including a Brief History of the Triumph Stag
    www.wheels-alive.co.uk Classic Clubs Series – No. 3 – The Stag Owners Club – including a brief history of the Triumph Stag Published: 5th January 2021 Author: Online version: https://www.wheels-alive.co.uk/classic-clubs-series-no-3-the-stag-owners-club-including-a-brief-history-of-the-triumph-stag/ More than 50 years after its introduction, the oh-so-stylish Triumph Stag is still being enjoyed by large numbers of enthusiasts. Here’s the story, as told by the Stag Owners Club, ‘in their own words’… Kim adds, “Grateful thanks to the Club for enthusiastically putting together this feature for Wheels-Alive”. In the beginning … In the late 1950s Triumph began consulting Giovanni Michelotti in Turin on any new design proposals which they had and in 1965 Michelotti asked Triumph to supply him with a donor car to be used as the basis of a styling concept for the 1966 Turin Show. In June 1965 a www.wheels-alive.co.uk Triumph 2000 saloon which had been used to deliver one of the racing Spitfires to Le Mans for that year’s 24-hour race, was driven down to Turin so Michelotti could work it. Michelotti’s design concept which morphed into the Stag. The resulting concept did not make it to the Motor Show as Harry Webster, Director of Engineering at Triumph, saw the car during one of his routine visits to see Michelotti and it was returned to Coventry for assessment and further development. Although planned for release in 1968, the car was caught up in the Leyland/BMH merger of that year with the result that the re-engineering of the powertrain specified by Spen King, the BL appointed replacement for Harry Webster at Triumph, delayed the production plans.

    File: BMD Geoff Gibbs.mp3 Duration: 0:27:02 Date: 02/08/2016 Typist: 676 START AUDIO Interviewer: Okay. Can I ask your name please? Geoff Gibbs: My name is Geoff Gibbs. Interviewer: Okay. What's your association with Stevenage Football Club? Geoff Gibbs: Originally I was just an ordinary supporter like everybody else. Over the last five to eight years I was, firstly, Communications Officer for the Supporter's Association and more recently I'm Secretary of the Supporter's Association. With my team of other committee members, we're responsible for trying to get the numbers of supporters who are part of the association up to almost 1,000 people. Interviewer: Okay. How are you doing at the moment with that? Geoff Gibbs: In terms of the numbers, we've got 722. We had 909 last year, but because we've had very lucrative and very popular FA Cup runs around Christmas and January time, that's when we get a few people coming in to join the Supporter's Association. To be honest, it makes sense if you're part of the association from day one, really from the preseason friendlies, because what you can get is a discount off any shop stock or certain suppliers in Stevenage and the surrounding areas. For instance, I've got to go to see a solicitor on Friday and I've got 10% off my legal bills. One thing like that pays for the membership for a year. Interviewer: Fantastic. That sounds a good deal. It sounds like it's support as well as the club, it seems to be a reciprocal arrangement with supporting local business.
