Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

I'll add your name to the list of well-wishers to be read out to the (reduced) number of participants. We shall miss you too, Arthur, but David will be keeping the Seeley flag flying!

Bill, it was at Trevor Pickles's house I saw Geelong Cats winning on tv - no option but to see it as Gail, Trevor's wife, is a fanatical supporter! T & G should be just about touching down at Tullamarine after their month-long trip over this side - so welcome home to them (when Trevor catches up on his email).

I too send my best wishes for a pleasant evening. I am normally in W Yorks Tues-Thurs every week, but not Fridays.

Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

It was a real good do. Thanks to Doug for organising it. Met Roy Butterfield whom I had not seen for 46 years. Brilliant!

Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

I will second that with the greatest of pleasure. My compliments also go to the caterers for an excellent meal!

Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

D'accord Sean and Alec - and thanks also, Gill, and to all who turned up - without whom it would have been a non-event. Good to see the usual suspects and some unexpected characters from the past - viz Bruce Grime whom I recall was a regular but of Albert's (good-humoured??) victimization. Good to see you, Bruce? Can you make the next one?

Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

Anyone took some photos to add to the website?

And is it possible to list the attendees?

Thanks
Chris

Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

As at the 2009 reunion I was the youngest one there. No one from my year or later turned up. If this carriesn on I can envisage a time when only myself and Spike will be there.

Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

Alec,

I may attend the next one. Although I am not an Old Boy, I would be the youngest there!

Cheers
Chris

Re: Biennial Reunion 2011

Chris, apologies that our contribution to the photographic record has gone up only now, but we went off for a fortnight's holiday in Greece the day after the event and so had no time then. A pity really because I should have liked to send the group photo to the 'Keighley News'. Too late now, I fear.

Alec and David, however, filled in where Gill and I failed on the website. Our thanks to both.

I shall get a list of participants to you next week.
