I ...Dear Peter, thanks for these wonderful stories. I am an old Rafflesian and a friend of the late Wong Chai Kee. Found your blog by Googling his name. Today I also found out that my father in law Ronnie Chan —a career teacher—was once the rugby master of RI (in the mid-1960s). He left RI for St Andrews' in 1968.Aaron Leenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-23574999797881910812012-03-06T12:14:30.520+08:002012-03-06T12:14:30.520+08:00Thanks "Colonel".

Very inte...Hi Chun See. It's Paul Warner again.<br />Very interesting piece about bare-foot rugby players - I didn't know that was the case back in the day.<br />I concur with your views about playing barefoot. In my youth living in Seletar Hills and then Seletar Camp I used to run around barefoot all the time - when going to the shops, crawling through drains or when playing football in the road. <br />The soles of our feet were made of sterner stuff back then.<br />In fact I played barefoot once in an Inter-Catholic Church seven-aside youth tournament while everyone else wore boots. Brave or foolhardy?<br />My first pair of boots were Adidas and then Puma. Later I bought a pair of Patrick Keegan boots from Peninsula Plaza.<br />That was back in the time when King Kev did not have a grey hair in sight - like the rest of us, I presume.korinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14073348542786900494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-16491837353349215982012-02-12T23:57:29.685+08:002012-02-12T23:57:29.685+08:00I love your blog!

But I think Rugby being such a popular sport with the British, they would have had very good players and coaches over at St Johns.Lam Chun Seehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762020157703342970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-21476903378311831242012-02-12T17:19:45.630+08:002012-02-12T17:19:45.630+08:00I think kids of our time had thicker skins.

As I have blogged <a href="http://goodmorningyesterday.blogspot.com/2005/12/accidents.html" rel="nofollow">here</a> before, as a kid, I often ran around our kampong barefooted and have stepped on broken glass and thumbtacks. My brother even stepped on a rusty nail. And then of course, there's pig's dung :(<br /><br />So compared to these, what is touch-me-not. But now, it's a different story of course. Stepped on bee the other day, and it hurt like crazy :(Lam Chun Seehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762020157703342970noreply@blogger.com
