OG Chris Blair tells us about Dyscover

Message from Chris Blair (OG 65)

I went to SGC from 1958 to 1964 and my main claim to fame is that I was in the first eleven for cricket for two years.

After I had left I went to work as a Trainee Solicitor in Addlestone and then I qualified as a Solicitor in 1972 and worked at Linklaters who were one of the leading firms in the City of London. I then moved to Rabin Leacock as a partner 1979.

I moved on to Bangkok but it was on my return that I got a stroke. I have been married for 37 years to Jil and I have two daughters, Madeleine and Melanie. Apart from my family, my main interest are rugby, cricket and reading.

I would like to tell you about Dyscover and what they have to offer......"
