school reunion[today]

[steve56]

only 6 turned up what a fiasco and 3 said theres no reunion i felt snubbed all day.

[Bob Singleton]

There were over 40 at our last reunion.

Funniest one was about 3 years ago (the first we'd ever had).... all the "girls" (sorry, still "girls" to me even though we are all now in our forties!) started getting pics out of their children etc... some of the lads did too.

One old friend said to me "What about you Bob? Any photos?" "Yes, absolutely.... let me get them, they're in my car" I said, remembering that I had my "book" with me. So out I went and came back with my big ring binder full of photos of all the dancers who work for me....

"There!" I said, "That's MY family!!!"

Mix of hoots of laughter from the lads and oh-my-Gods from the girls. People still talk about it to this day! )

'only 6 turned up what a fiasco and 3 said theres no reunion i felt snubbed all day.'

A whole drama in a single line. You keep doing this, Steve. Alan Bennett almost hospitalized with envy.

[steve56]

Perhaps steve56 is Alan Bennett.

Mart

[crofter]

eh yes mart ... maybe gordon bennett on a bad day (a very bad day).
ps steve nice to see you guys make an effort, don?t knock the girls and guys that didn?t make it, a lot of folks have different aspects of their lives to sort out perhaps which possibly might take preference .... maybe next year??

[steve56]

the lot that turned up were very standoffish apparently when the one that was having all the chat found out i left in 68 and she and her mates were 70 i got snubbed all thru ,but i dont care i have lots of friends on here and fru site.

Quite right Steve , if they are snobs and the fellowship of the moth remains hidden from them , it is their loss . I always enjoy my re unions , and you get such exotic food and booze in the family run shops round that part of North London now .

[steve56]

they were trying to make out they were snobs in my book they come from shepherds bush clique with others i spose if yer face dont fit your out i never liked the school when i was there anyway just a day out to me.
