Great site and well done. A very true reflection of Surrey back then and some names that I thought I had forgoten. Oh in answer to "KUB Kitchen something" I believe it was "Kitchen Utility Breakfast room" and I remember the Baby Belling. As you rightly said it was amazing what could be cooked on them. Plus just one telephone in the KUB in third court and that was only on the internal phone network. Payphones on campus for outgoing calls.
Great site and some cool memories- thank you.
I was recently clearing the loft and found a few pics (no negs I'm afraid). Quality is variable and they range from v small prints to some quite large. I'll try to fit them into your required pixel size.
I'm still in touch with a few people and might see if they have anything they'd like to post.
Keep up the good work.
Best Regards ....Les
I have a few B&W Stag Hill Morris team photos from IVFDF. (Oxford 1980 I think)
I'm also looking for any photos of Pete Brown (Ex Stag Hill Morris) who passed away this year on Dec 4.
Looking good but couldn't find the photo I was looking for. Is it still there??? And where should I look? Found the rag week one and the 21st birthday one - can add several names if you want me to - but not able to find the one in the residence.
PS do you still live in Burgess Hill?
Hello Helen
We left Burgess Hill nearly 30 years ago. Now live in Horsham.
What photos are youn looking for? I probably have larger copies on file somewhere. And yes please do send any information, that I can add to the web site. ce@uossnaps.co.uk
Colin,
I have some photos I took at my time at UOS in 1977. Would you like me to scan them in and send you copies?
Cheers
Glynn
New photos always very welcome. It's been a while since the last update.
Please include some text explaining who, where and when.
Ideally they should be about 1200 pixels across and post them to ce@uossnaps.co.uk
Appears to be the site of the Space Centre (Building AB) looking from somewhere near where the managment school now stands, would guess is the beginning of build works for the space centre.
Colin,
On your Folk Club page where you show the BBC recording of Jasper Carrott et al; the guy in the colour photo on the right is Noel Murphy who came on stage clutching a bottle of whisky that he regularly slurped from.
John
BTW Noel Murphy was a regular on the folk circuits. I remember also at the recording that the Radio one DJ payed a jingle that was recorded by a UofS choir that advertized University Radio Surrey that went along the lines of:-
"Radio One - Station of the nation ........ etc. etc. etc. but not as good as University Radio Surrey !!! "
pity that didn't go nation wide 
I went along to the 71-75 reunion last month hoping to see a few familiar faces; but no-one NO-ONE was there from Elec Eng (except for a postgrad of 1971) !!!
The only two people I recognized there was Anne Rix of Bare Facts and Ecological Warrior fame and Mel (ex Union President) and Mel didn't remember me. Definitely not a result ! Where were you all - Colin ???
Still, there were several pleasant people to chat with and |I got to see the place again
I was in Spain, but anyway it wasn't sure that I'd recognise anybody, because most of the people I'm still in contact with graduated in 76 & 77.
Anne Rix! Somewhere there's a photo of me fighting her. She probably won.
Hi! I'm a second year English lit student at Surrey uni. I'm working on a magazine as part of 'Surrey Life', designed to improve communucation between the university and students. A major part of the magazine is to show how the university has improved over the years and I was wondering if I could please include some of your photos as I feel they would be an interesting feature.
If you could reply to me here or send me an email I would be very grateful!
Thanks,
Sasha
I've sent you an email.
As for how university life has improved I'd say that's open to debate.
Both my children also went to UoS, so from experience I would say things have changed rather than improved.
There seems to be no mechanism for me to reply to John Blackburn' reply to my post. Maybe you can alert him please Colin.
Dear John
I remember Legget and even went a few times to the little discussion groups that you mention. Maybe we were there at the same time. I have also found a diary entry from 26th April 1977. " Dr.Legget the ex-vice chancellor gave the first "Legget Lecture" on the "Implications of the Paranormal. The basic premise of it was certain aspects of psychic phenomena needed more investigation science. It was very interesting."
