Top rewrite! That's just what a Wikipedia article should look like. Thanks for that!

Regarding King Edward School I'm interested that TS Flamingo was based there. My grandmother lived on Sunderland Road, backing on to the school, until she died, and my mother has the noticeboard (commemorating the opening of the school in 1927) up in her garage in Yorkshire! My uncle (who lived with my grandmother) "liberated" it from a skip when they pulled the school down and gave it to my Dad, who was also born and brought up in Gateshead (and went to King Edward) but moved to Yorkshire in 1966. He died in March of this year, and my Mum and I have been wondering ever since if anybody would like the noticeboard back. I've wondered about Gateshead Council, or perhaps a local history musem. On the other hand if the Sea Cadets want it you're welcome... Cheers, Tonywalton | Talk 19:22, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
