[nightape]

[norns]

well the feeling was mutual

[norns]

cool avator nighape . just what i expected from you

[nightape]

lol thanks, still a feline fanatic!
On a sadder note, it looks like us three saddos were the only ones to go to UGHS!! Or is it just that when we went, there were still live dinosaur specimens to dissect?

[biffon]

yeah methinks Umtali is a name very few TCB members would know im afraid, so theres little chance you'd get much recognition unless you got more baby boomers to join up! :D

hey thats a good idea - seeing as we've had a rush of new members, why dont we make December "refer a friend" month!!!!
chants have you finalised your newsletter yet?

[Nyala]

Oi.....Baby boomers are in their 50's now - We're a whole lot younger than that, ~smack~......lol :D

[sally]

I think my mother went to UGH, her name was elizabeth wilkins, her sister is rose wilkins! you might know them?

[Nyala]

Doesn't ring any bells, Sal. When was she there? I left MGH in 1982 at the end of form 4.

[sally]

I think you may be too young, she is now 47 years old in jan. My grandfather also lived in Mutare, John roy wilkins.

[Goblin]

Not me, i was but a twinkle in my Daddy's eye then

[berniechantelle]

My Mom, Ingrid Woest (nee Von Lachner) went during that period. If you would like to contact her, message me! :o)

Hi sally, I was in the same class as your mom and lived in Fern Valley and got into heaps of trouble with her, Rosemary and Jenny and Angela cannot stand my guts, the feeling is mutual.

[Philomina]

Does anyone remember Elaine Theron (known as ET) she would have been there round your time.

[Nyala]

I remember Elaine - she was a bit older than us, I think, but we have very many fuzzy memories of fun times spent together at Motors and Sports.

[norns]

yeh !! i do remember her. went to school with her she was in a higher form but like nyala says motoring club and sports club were the places to go then .

[sally]

Hi sally, I was in the same class as your mom and lived in Fern Valley and got into heaps of trouble with her, Rosemary and Jenny and Angela cannot stand my guts, the feeling is mutual.

hey, i am hoping to get mom out to new zealand in the next year, she has said she wanted to see you again!! I can only just tolerate jenny, rose, well depends on the situation she can be ok, and i only met angela once. I hope you are well and its good to see you on the site!!

[Philomina]

Hi, it would be lovely to see your Mom again - please let us know when she is coming over, as another friend Debbie Raath will also want to see her and we live on opposite sides of the north island, she is in Auckland and we are in the Bay of Islands - will she be coming on her own and what would there plans be - I might be able to offer accommodation.

[sally]

Its not been planned yet, but mom and rob both really want to go to OZ and New Zealand, and as part of their wedding present i will get their tickets. it will either be this year or next, its up to them when they want to go or rather when they can get time off and go! I spoke to her just now and she said that we are now related by marriage!!

[Philomina]

Yes I believe so - via the Brents

[norns]

all these names are ringing bells here. Debbie Raath i knew her in Mutare as well. well i knew her through my mom looking after the children so she is a few years older than me now. didnt she marry gary.

[nightape]

Hey Norns, think you are right there, what ever happened to Vee? She was an absolute blast! Remember her at the co-op?

[Philomina]

Hi, If you are meaning Vee, Debs's Mother, I am sorry to have to tell you that she died mid 2006. She was really a lovely person.

Do any of you remember Wendy Cook, June Pieters, Although never went to UGHS - who knows Tina and Maureen Martin?

[biffon]

Yes i know them but not well.. Tina is the... more attractive of the two :D
