Where are they now?
Peter Eveleigh, (G, 1961-1965) has sent
in a photograph of a group of Teddies
boys on the 1964 DofE Gold expedition in
the Lake District, with base camp believed
to be at Muirside. Peter has provided
the following identifications for those
in the photographs, and wishes to find
out about those he cannot identify, and
what everyone has been doing since the
photograph was taken over 50 years ago.
If you recognise someone, please contact
the OSE Office.
If I am not mistaken they are my mother,
or rather named after her – ‘Della Balfour’.
They were donated by my father Dick
Balfour (E 1930-34).
I thought that you might be interested
to know that Teddies is in good company.
There are three Della Balfour’s
planted in Buckingham Palace Gardens.
My brother Michael (E, 1960-1965) wrote
to the Queen and she graciously accepted
our gift of three rose bushes.
An article by Mike Fulford (E, 1962-1966)
was spotted in March 2015’s issue of Current
Archaeology, detailing his early interest in
archaeology, and the influence of renowned
historian Derek Roe (E, 1950-1956). Derek
went on to become an Archaeology Professor
at Oxford, a Governor at St Edward’s and a
founder of The North Wall. Sadly, he passed
away in 2014, and his obituary may be found
in the Obituaries section. Professor Fulford
was appointed CBE in 2011, and currently
works at the University of Reading.
