Never nice to hear of the demise of an Ex Verdalan, however we know it will come to us all in the end. 59 too young !

Oops - my post should say 'remembers HIM'! Had sisters Patricia, born 1955 and me, Alyson, born 1960.

Thought I'd let you know my brother Peter Raymond Murphy (left Verdala '66) died in March of last year aged just 59. Just in case anyone remembers hid

When I read Helen's post, I racked my memory (tempus fugit - but came up with the answer) then realised I had seen the answer recently.

There is a, possibly, apocryphal Junior Officer's confidential report which reads: "This Officer will go through life pushing on doors marked pull".

From memory, it's something like "Ludum Praeter Palmam Amare".

Does anyone have the Verdala motto in Latin? In English it was" For the love of the sport and not the prize".
