Thanks to all who made it another wonderful walk down memory lane last week. More than 40 gathered at the Golf Club to enjoy a very agreeable lunch, to test our powers of recognition, and to reminisce. Our table talk included memories of the 80 yard sprint down Mill Street (it wasn't long enough for 100 yards!), Mr (George) Jay's gym classes, and being taught Greek by the headmaster, B.H. Garnons Williams (others had more painful recollections of him).

My new style photo is much improved on last year, you can actually see who's who. I have added names and hope I have indentified everyone correctly.

Special thanks to the new Principal, Martin Walker, who gave an upbeat assessment of the school's future in such choppy waters and its good works in giving bursaries to refugees. 

In light of this year's success, and thanks to your support, I'm pleased to tell you that we will be reconvening next year, on Thursday 6th May, at the Golf Club. I will be back in touch after Christmas with further details. Until then, it leaves me only to wish you a very happy rest of the year.
Kind regards
