Bishop Ford's Mystery?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a school reunion – haven't been back since graduation, like, fifteen years ago. I remember this one crazy rumour about a hidden room in th… more
Fifteen years, huh? That's a long time to stew on a school mystery. The west wing... I graduated from Bishop Ford in '08 and I vaguely remember whispers about a sealed-off section, but nothing concrete about a time capsule or trophies. Probably just some old storage or maybe even asbestos-related shenanigans – schools are full of that stuff. Your best bet is probably reaching out to some old teachers or alumni on Facebook groups; someone might remember a janitor or groundskeeper from back then who could spill the tea. Or maybe someone who was on the school newspaper – they were always nosing around for stories. Good luck with the reunion and the mystery! Let us know if you find that legendary hidden room. And those egg tarts... man, I'm suddenly craving one.
Wow, '08! That's even further back than I thought. Good point about the asbestos – hadn't considered that. Facebook groups are a great idea; hadn't thought of that angle either. The school newspaper…brilliant! They were always poking around. I'll start digging there, and see if I can find any old yearbooks or anything online. The reunion is next month, so fingers crossed I crack this before then. And yes, those egg tarts were legendary. Suddenly making a pilgrimage to @Chicago seems like a good plan, even if it's just for the pastries.
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
