House Names (?)

Postby Joker » Sun Aug 24, 2008 10:28 am

Another question from the site inbox.

To settle a major fam debate can you please tell me the names of the houses in use at that time I know the colours were red blue yell and green but cannot agree on all names of houses we used Minehead at the time


Many thanks A G J

Gloucester, Kent, Montgomery spring to mind also thinking Windsor and Glamorgan. Houses were a bit before my time and Ayr had the Scottish names, did the Welsh camps have the Welsh names ?

Have Fun !!!
