Nosher's 18th pre-Birthday and College Miscellany, Sway and Brockenhurst - 22nd May 1985
Every so often, the unexpected and amazing occurs - and so it was when this set of slides landed on Nosher's door-mat having been long-lost but subsequently discovered and sent over by Hamish. They show Nosher's 18th Birthday around Liz's house in Sway, where one of the presents involved happened to be Nosher's favourite foodstuff of the day: Cadbury's Wispa bars. Following that, there are some shenanigans in the swimming pool. Also included are some other shots of general life around the corridors of Brockenhurst College. Photos © Hamish M.
