All very well, Phill, but no 'View' no 'Historical Imagery', nuffink, when I went onto Google Earth! But SO MANY different ways to get to it!

Then of course you all knew that anyway. Says the man who forgot to put his name on the previous post.

On google earth, click on view, then on historical imageary, a slider appears in the top left hand of the screen and you can zoom back to 2002.

Sorry everyone, the link to google earth view of the school has too many digits to fit here. Enter 'St Nicholas Rd, Cospicua, Malta' Good luck!

Me to Adrian, I was in Malta as a babe in 1950-52 and at Verdala in 1957-60 came home July 1960 at the age of 11.

Overlapped slightly with you both times, we left the second time in 59 just after I took the 11+. 2 three year tours, was your father Dockyard?

Was at Verdala 1953-55 and 1956-58. Any contemporaries out there? Would have been approaching 10 when I left.
