Shrewsbury School doesn't come out at all well in his autobiography, Margrave of the Marshes.
There is one great STFC related line.Peel was a huge Liverpool FC fan and gave all 4 of his kids many LFC related middle names
When one of the kids complained about having Anfield as a middle name he calmly explained that all of the early football matches he attended were at STFC and they could have ended up being named Gay Meadow

That would be a fascinating collection to peruse. I could probably spend a holiday doing it (preferably in winter but you get my drift).

Stowmarket's finest ever resident, which given the only other person of note is Delia Smith is not saying much, but he's much revered round these parts, rightly so.

Absolutely, here's a JP related quiz question for you. It's well documented that JP was born two days before the outbreak of WW2 at Heswall Cottage Hospital on the Wirral Sixteen years later which world famous sportsman was also born at the same hospital? As a clue, people do not associ ate him with The Wirral. Answer in 30 mins as I've got to pop to the shops !!
