Have You Ever Been To A Reunion?

[Hiney]

I literally shudder to think what would happen if the 6th Form School Leavers from Bognor Regis Comprehensive School - 1977, ever got together.

It would be carnage on every level.

I still keep in contact with a few and we have a Football Club reunion every 3/4 months, but that's about it.

I had one in may. Was in two minds. Figured too since I last saw everyone and was over it. But got collered into it so went. Actually had a good time and saw loads of old mates. Rolled indoors at 3.30am, hammered. Throughly enjoyed it.

I can't imagine anything worse.

I will of course be going to a reunion on October 3rd.

Got invited to a Hazelwick (Crawley) re union a while ago.

Thought about it, and fancied it, but felt I had moved on from people from school, so didn't go.

Ha, I was there in 1990, in front of the Brandenburger Tor, totally bladdered.

Went to my 10 year school reunion and the 20 year one. Was a bit nervous but once the beer got flowing, everyone seemed to relax and have a good time. Through the power of the interwebby thing and facebook, i have kept in touch with many school friends. I went to school in Ringmer and still see loads of people from school around Lewes and have frequent meet ups. A school mate comes over every year from New Zealand and he's over now so we're having a decent get together on the 4th Oct and i can't wait

Oh you won't get me to go to a reunion

 

[Juan Albion]

Watch "Grosse Pointe Blank" and then decide.

Went to an RAF reunion of which back then we were a close nit group of friends.

Came away somewhat disappointed after they tried to relive times long gone and we had each developed and grown up in different directions....I firmly believe in the saying never go back!

 

[Hyperion]

Full of people looking to boast how well they're doing and bore you with baby photos. Hideous look at me-ers

 

[beakyburn]

Got one coming up - mixed feelings as to whether to go or not.

Did you enjoy yours?

Meet up just before Xmas. Old Knoll school 62-67/68. 2012 was 50 years since we all started school together and always good to catch up. Have sadly lost a couple the last few years which proves time just flies by.

I've just this week, had a facebook message out of the blue, from my first real girlfriend, who I've not seen in 15 years, inviting me to a Hove Park School one.

She's really quite lovely, but I won't be going.

Wise move. It's probably her husband posing as her and wants to beat you round the head with a large stick.

On the broader question, I'd rather chew my arm off than talk to old Vardinians about what I am up to now and then pretend to give a shit about them. If I wanted to stay in contact I would have done. Quite why anyone wants to make small talk with people you probably hated at school beats me.

I'm pretty sure I won't be invited to any reunions.

 

[Dave the OAP]

We were invited to an old falmer school 1977 leavers one, primarily for my wife's year group..5th years at The Swann at falmer. . A few came along from 6th form, but it was a bit odd to see so many people from the old days that you did not recognise.

Because of my dads work, Ichanged school every 2 years from nursery, so didn't really ever get time to make long term friendships.

 

[GT49er]

Never been to one, but would love to try one - it's just that the places and times I've been in don't seem to have reunions.

Ha ha. Are you David Hasselhof?
