I've been to 2 school reunions ..... the most recent organised through the FR site. Both great evening entertainment. I spent the first half hour to an hour looking at people coming in and trying firtsly to guess who they were as they looked so old OR wondering what their secret was as they looked exactly the same as they did at school .... except for the dodgy late 70s early 80s fashion sense (well most of them dressed a little better anyway). Early conversations a little subdued ... mostly about what job, married, kids etc etc ..... and then people start chatting/hanging about with the people they used to .... talking about the same stuff they used to ... some people gettiing stuck into people they used to as well ... a few drinks followed by a slowie on the dancefloor ... and the odd kiss and cuddle from what I could see. One or two seemed to have done well for themselves financially ... own business doing well etc ... one reminded me of Boycey from Only Fools and Horses .... others not done so well. Some a bit worse for wear ...... on bloke ended up slouched over the bar with his trousers half down .... he even threw a punch at someone at one point ..... definitely too many shandies. Fabulously entertaining ...... and to cap it all I won a DVD player in a raffle! |
