I was at Allenye's Grammar School for only two years (before being "asked to leave.") After nearly fifty more however I can still remember the opening verse of the wretched school song:
"In fifteen hundred and fifty eight
ere Bess to the the throne ascended,
'What shall I do' said his reverence true
'for fame when my life is ended?'
Aaaaaa-Alleynes! Aaaaaaa-Alleynes!
Quoth the Reverend Thomas Alleyne.'
So come on, rake out your memories one and all...
