• Criag, the charismatic ex 70’s prog rock musician, was the epitome of cool back then.
• He had cars, a swanky office and would not accept the degraded conditions the majority of Sea Org members lived in at that that time. He felt – correctly - that he could do little to effect material improvement for the rest of the UK SO base, so he regged like mad and built a fairly ‘yuppie’ life style for himself, the wife Karen and his lovely children, all this against the backdrop of dark mutterings of jealousy from senior execs at FLO and staff on the UK base.
• His position was pretty much protected in that he was the ‘golden boy’ and provided something like 90 percent of the income for the UK operation both at Saint Hill and in the struggling Class V orgs network. He was briefly posted as CO CLO. Busted, became D/CO AOSH, had a torrid affair with Lena, and was RPFed. He completed OT V and graduated around 2004.
• Last time I saw him he had married the very attractive 22 year old LRH Pers sec, and was now D/CO Sales in AOSH.

• The bearded wild man, I really liked Ken, he was full of energy and tried to deal with things in a light hearted and humorous manner. He was RPFed by Jan Jansen I think in 1993, graduated and became an exec in AOSH. He did OT III around 1995 or ‘96 and routed out shortly thereafter. He now lives in Australia and was working for Craig Jensens Executive Software, establishing the antipodeans version of the brand.

• Lyndall Warren – UK Programs Dir
• Ken’s wife, the mousy Australian, she was always freezing cold in the UK, poor dear, was in programs bureau for years. At the launch of New Era of Management, she was sent to the FLO, where she was trained up as CO FOLO, and came back with a nice hair cut, failed miserably and was put on the decks – washing up in the galley. Lyndall was a very sweet and gentle lady, I don’t know how she took the amount of sh** that she did, and deep down, even as an SO member, I was very happy that she and Ken left for a better life in Australia.

• Good old Roger. Mission holder and div 6er extraordinary. A complete maniac, but boy, could he make money. He built a house of cards in Brighton that produced lots of Div 6 raw meat, good dosh and loads bods to SH.
• He opened the Mission of Bournemouth, turned over Brighton to Steve Webster while CLO, under Steve Lake, stat pushed the place into a class V org. Steve Webster and his team could not maintain what was essentially a sham, complaide loudly and bitterly and he promptly got declared.
• The Brighton org struggles on, often not paying its rent, propped up by various garrison EDs and teams of SO rejects – Sea Org couples who ran out money to buy contraceptives, the resultant pregnancy forcing their excommunication from SO activity, banished to the horrors of the Class V Orgs...
• Roger was not declared, he knew too much, he was kept on a tight rein by OSA, constantly making amends of one kind or another as a public, he is still doing this, and attempting to get various ventures started. Still married to lovely and long suffering Andrea Webber, he works in advertising, selling space in magazines. He lives in Poole, Dorset.

• This fellow was a dodgy salesman if I ever met one, made hundreds of thousands on illegal debiting of stagnant money in parishioners accounts.
• He was a full SO member, and D/CO Tours under Craig M.
• He bought a house in EG with his ill gotten gains, lots of nice leather jackets, and moved out with his wife and Kids from the Stonelands slum and resided there, quite nicely, thank you very much, until he got found out and declared SP.
• The family left EG and last I heard, David was a financial advisor in Hartfordshire.

• I love this lady. Once a South African beauty, she married Gerald in the Seventies, moved to England and the two joined the SO. Cherle was CO SMI in 1995 when the various – quite incredible - scams going on in Bournemouth finally blew up in a splew of litigation that nearly brought the UK Church down. Cherle was busted to Base crew – Estates Org for you oldies – and became the Medical Liaison Officer for the base really. She nursed Darlean through her last agonising days prior to succumbing to cancer, she did the same for good old Dick Garlick and Pam Malinson (sent back from IASA to UK to die).
• A lot of her time is devoted to looking after the very old UK SO crew (John Harvey, John Cox, Thelma Cusworth et al. She is the Florence Nightingale to all the stressed out CMO and CLO execs, who collapse every now and again with a bewildering array of complaints due in part to lack of sleep and adequate nutrition. Last I knew Cherle was still fulfilling this function at Walsh Manor in Crowborough.

• Gerald Laws – sometimes CO SMI, and about half of his now thirty year career on the RPF in various parts of the globe
• He was on the RPF in US and UK from around 1993 to 1999 when he graduated and became my junior. I was CO SMI at this time. I sent Gerald off to India to open up some field work there.
• This was Geralds’ cup of tea; he loved the place and hated being imprisoned on base as an administrative corporate drone. He did well there, but upset people at Int. I walked off post following my stint in Bournemouth – I saw what SCN Corporate were really up to, it shattered my illusions - in 2001, and Gerald took over, he was back on the RPF within three weeks or so, currently serving out his term – ironically – in Australia. (Remember the old UK Birthday Game joke? Australia is England’s RPF : - )

• With Roger, she kicked off the idea of blank loan application forms for Div 6ers in Bournemouth. They would ‘gang reg’ a new prospect for hours or days, till he succumbed and signed a blank loan form, this would be filled out to request let us say 20 grand, and tended to go through pretty easily, lots of easy credit in the early 1990s.
• Bournemouth was raking in around 90K a week from this gig, and it looked great, till people began suing. Andrea finally got busted in 1995. The then CO CLO Ron Norton, sent Bruce Perry and Bart Van Locke down there to make enough money to buy off the most aggressive of the suits, (settling out of court) these boys were tough, dedicated, FLO trained Ethics and Image Officers, with Midshipman rank to boot, and they made complete balls of the scene, Andrea blew, took a lawyer, and joined the suing party.
• She was declared and by the time I became CO SMI UK, was the biggest danger to the nice cosy image Scientology was attempting to build for its self in the UK. I had to go on a full garrison to Bournemouth and worked with the lovely Debbie Corney and Stephanie to make the required six hundred thousand needed to buy her silence, we did it, and she shut up and went away. Shattered all my altruistic delusions about Corporate Scientology to boot, sowing the seeds that led to my exit some five years later.

• Steve the handsome Adonis, Maria his gorgeous doe-eyed wife. Steve was off loaded from the RPF by a CMOI mission in the late 1990’s. He divorced Maria, and married a very sexy public Scientology lady, daughter of a declared former Class VIII CS, and thus never qualled for the SO. He was running Executive Software UK from East Grinstead last I knew. Maria moved to LA and remarried, she was on lines at AOLA per my last information.

• A former and very talented student at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London, got into Scientology in Tottenham Court Road around 1974. Joined the SO and worked in and around Saint Hill for years. Was CO SHF in the mid and late eighties, moved to finance following a stint on the RPF, and worked with me on the International Computerisation project in the US during 1993 to 1996.
• He became Finance Inspector UK in ’97 and was still doing so when I left. He goes into severe doubt every once in a while, and was Comm- Eved for reading Jon Attacks ‘A Piece of Blue Sky’ in 2005, - I recommend this book by the way. – I think he is still in finance in some capacity at Saint Hill.

• A stunning, horny and restless rich bitch, daughter of some kind of Lebanese sheik. Back in 1987 she drove a hot Porsche, was madly in love with Craig, and used to shower him with gifts. After their immoral liaisons came to light, she went off to Flag, married a trans-Atlantic race skipper, both did OT VII and he died of a heart attack in 2000. She was still at Flag in 2005.

• These were a great team, funny, witty and good at their jobs. Mo routed out, Frank got promoted and then badly busted, spent ten years on the RPF and on graduation in 2001 became the D/CO AOSH. He was Tech Sec last time I saw him.

• I don’t know if any you remember the Chinese-Australian Co Estates in 1986? When I got back to UK from SMI Int that year, I decided to move to Estates Org, leaving Rolf Glatt alone in the UK SMI Office. Mick dealt, with a budget of nothing, the feeding of, maintaining buildings and operation of a transportation system for about 120 crew with considerable humour and resignation. Mick and old OT III, and a real genuine old Saint Hiller, was fun to work with, though a bit of a pushover, I moved to directly from Maintenance Sec to CO Tours Com with so much as a CSW, I think Craig actually bought me from Mick... Mick in AOSH again, working with the rapidly fading Isla Pride in the Apollo AO.

• Cameron and Kalanie Frost – SHF staff
• Kalanie was the broody sister of Maria, she married Cameron, and – this is pre the 1986 Miscavitch ED cancelling child birth – with a few years had five noisy kids. Cameron succumbed to a vey case of MS or similar degenerative disease and died in 1998 or 9. Kalanie remarried and is public in EG.

• Since 1988 he has been the bane of anyone wishing to tell the truth about Scn Corporate activities and crimes in the UK. A very sharp Italian man with pretty extensive legal training, this, coupled with the black arts taught by OSA Int, makes him a formidable enemy. for those who don’t know him, he can be charming, but will stick in the knife on friends and foe alike just for laughs.

• JF was a professional artist before getting into Scn, he ended up in the SO at Saint Hill in 1983, Divorced his then wife Arlene Jackson – you Ars bugs will know her- married Angela, and worked as FSM I/C for quite a few years. He was busted in 1995, worked in Base crew for two years, routed out and now lives in Chicago, he makes a living as a decorator and produces his far out art work in between.
• Angela was kicked out of the SO in 1994 by DM and Marty Rathbourne during an inspection of Qual AOSH, they apparently walked into her Intern room talking loudly, she told them off, and ended up living in EG in a small flat and working in Sainsburies. She was reprieved in 1998 following a big expansion push – yes another one folks - , and worked as the Cadet School I/C for a few years. She was a brittle distant lady, but I got on well with her. She is now back on her old post in Qual AOSH.

• Worked in FOLO in the eighties, a very attractive girl, she is only mentioned here because I had fierce crush on her, but was too shy to try anything on. She was reposted to AOLA, and routed out in 1999, she lives in the Oxford area now from what I know.

• John was the pushy boss of the programs branch for the bulk of his career, a quintessentially English bod, he transferred to AOSH to train as NOTs auditor in 1998, he is still enjoying this new career today, doing well, and I wish him well. A thoroughly decent chap altogether.

• Ron descended on a sleepy Saint Hill base in 1994 with a command team from Int. This fiery bunch were sent with orders to use the most violent means possible to get the base and UK orgs to Saint Hill size while remaining just within the bounds of legality. They got a lot done, including the purchase and renovation of Walsh manor, moving the crew out of the slums they had been living in for the prior two decades.
• With the garrison CO and D/CO Prod CMO, they created scenes reminiscent of the Alex Siborskie ‘Battle of Britain’ mission in 1973. The pattern of screaming, thumping desks and summery ‘executions’ - RPFing without any recourse to justice – provided an atmosphere of barely restrained violence and desperation. The teams were all recalled and a more ‘in pr’ team was allowed to take over in 1999. Last time I was in LA in 2000, he was the CO FLO. The UK is still recovering from what amounted to a twenty year set back.

• You all should know this burly, hairy irrepressible character, one of the soundest blokes I ever had the pleasure of working with. We did a tour to Dublin in 1988, and had a great laugh.
• Me: A fairly freshly graduated EPFer and transferee from SMI Int to SMI UK.

• A real butch Bostonian, she was a funny and great lady. Was busted and RPFed following her affair with the Bridge Pubs sales dir. She was my first CO, and I worked in SMI Int with her, Cherle, Clair Gaiman and Rea Matheison’s wife for a year. Jean graduated the RPF in about 1996, she worked in the LRH PPRO section at Gold for a few years, when I was CO SMI UK she would call me desperately seeking pictures and stories from the work we were doing in India, she was busted again and was in Pac Crew last I heard in 2005.

• Clair was and is a good woman. She CO SMI just before Caroline Mustard took over; they were both busted due to some enormous flap in 1998. Caroline was RPFed, and Clair reduced in rank from WO to swamper.
• She was posted as President SMI Int. (SMI Officer Int. being the exact title), she continues to do this post with her usual energy and aplomb, and works in her - very rare - free time to get her celebrity brother, author Neil Gaiman, back on lines.
