Of the three, Ducie was the closest. But as close was Xaverian College, (there must be only 100 yds or so in it), which is where I went 1971 -1976.
It's proximity to Maine Rd was very handy in Jan 1974, when I played wag to go and watch City V Coventry in the League Cup Qtr final replay. They played it midweek during the day, (because of the power cuts that were common that winter), and my mum and dad wouldn't let me take the day off school to go to it.
I did admit it though, sometime in my thirties I think! :)

It's called sarcasm as you said you went to a school in Bolton. It's obviously passed you by,never mind! Yet another one who takes everything literally on here. If it was meant to be taken literally i'd be quizzing you about your place of birth ffs.
No doubt you're going to tell us all now where you were born just so it gets all cleared up?
