i was on the old t s exmouth at bray near maidenhead from 1945 until it moved to woolverstone and became the LNS Woolverstone in 1947/8 i and 15 other boys were the advance party and helped get the place sorted out. I well remember many of the boys at bray and have clear memory of many of the masters ie pt powell,mac matthews,mr lidstone,and jock wiseman. I left woolverstone and went to sea as an apprentice with andrew weir shipping company in september 1948 completing my apprenticeshipin 1952.I also sailed with old boys ken clow and mick mann best wishes DW
