I HAVE been here in Ealing since 1935 - schooled here, joined the army in 1952, national service and

worked in the borough all of my life until retirement in 2007, aged 74.

During my schooling, I went to a fabulous school, Horsenden Secondary Modern for boys. Can anybody in the borough tell me what happened to it?

I was there from 1945 to 1948 and the teachers were recently returned from the services - most were ex-army and RAF, an excellent bunch of teachers.

Is there anyone out there from the school from that time?
