About 10 years ago, we were having a coffee at our regular place in Fleurance ( France ) when some acquaintances joined us - they had a friend in tow and it turned out he was also an ex-ATCO. He said he'd been on 21, 'Ah the famous resigning course' said I. 'Yes, I was one of the 6', he replied. He'd got a job at Lulsgate and IIRC stayed there forever. I can't recall his name.
I started my Direct Entry/Class to Class course on 5th November 1973 and it was the time of 21's graduation.
An ex-21er, Ray Draper, was my replacement in Stornoway in Dec' 1982, and last year I bumped into Tony Merton-Jones in Waitrose in Abergavenny - we'd been on LATCC C Watch together before I went on my travels.
H&I was the LATCC 'escape tunnel' and I think 2 more ex21ers, Geoff Greavey and John Brough were in H&I at the same time as me.
