The part about Fred's teaching career could be expanded: He was teaching at Elm Park Junior school, Winterbourne, near Bristol in 1970 or thereabouts. I believe he was teaching 10-11 year olds (Year 6) but left when I was in Year 5 so only taught me as a cover teacher, I never moved up into his class. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stevegrr (talk • contribs) 19:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, can you provide

reliable sourcing for this. I am sorry but your own recollections don't actually count for Wikipedia purposes. Jezhotwells (talk) 14:53, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply

I believe he was teaching at the Castle School in Thornbury in 1969-70 - I wasn't there but my best mate at the time was, and he was very proud that he was being taught by a real guitarist. Fred came back to play shows at the school a number of times afterwards when he had taken up music full time. I saw him twice in Guildford in the late 1970s, once a small scale affair in the student union bar, the other a full scale show in Guildford Civic Hall. Though not full this was well attended showing that he had built up a reputation well beyond the West Country long before the single "hit" that always gets quoted (mistakenly in my view) as his highest achievement.Ogeron (talk) 06:38, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
