......... The event was totally enjoyable; a crowd of happy and engaged friends; a splendidly organised day from start to finish - and it was much more than just one day of celebration. The relationships that have been rekindled by your efforts will last for many a year. Many people, especially Graham Jones, noted on November 2nd that there was a special spirit at Cavendish Road in the 1960's, and it is wonderful that it has endured.......... Peter Telford
18/11/14
......... It was great to see so many people carry on from where they left off. What difference did 50 years make? What a happy day! Ross and I appreciated the presence of Staff, both past and present. Grateful thanks. Lois Longland
........... too short...did not want to leave...did not see everyone.....but that is the measure of a really successful event. Thanks for the amazing job finding every one.......... Sandra St Ledger
............ The experience was everything I'd hoped it would be......... Being at our old Alma Mater made the event even more enjoyable........ Part of the excitement of the event was the development of the website and regular addition of photos and comments leading up to the big day (and since). ........ Ross Hansen

.........wondrous, wonderful, exhaustingly exhilarating ...... Left me wanting more catching up time with more fellow students..............Sonja Goodwin
............'Special friends enduring' ......... Well done to the organising committee. I was a little apprehensive about what to expect after nearly 50 years of no contact with anyone but very pleased that I made the effort. ............... Tom Phillips
